Sorry to people who check this sub alot, but I still haven't got a clear picture of what I want. Looking for three new monitors, if possible something better than standard 1080p60hz.AD

 

My budget is £450-500 GBP. If it's really, really worth it, I can maybe expand this to 600-700. Here's what I need:
 

3 monitors that will fit onto this stand; they don't need to all be the same (eg i was thinking one ultrawide and two 21 inch maybe? : https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01MZ70QA8/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

My PC can be found in signature, but it's a 1070 and 6700k (planning to upgrade when Covfefe lake and Volta are out)

I mostly game (mobas and PUBG, H1Z1) so I benefit from higher refresh rates.

 

Can anyone recommend something around this price-point? Ii bought three Asus screens but it turns out they are extremely misleading, they are advertised as 75HZ but don't go to 75HZ, they're also advertised as Framless but they aren't actually frameless.

For the three. Sorry for confusion. I would spend 600-700 for all three but only if it's very justified.

I have two Acer G277HU 1440p 1m response time monitors, and there both 27" and absolutely shred every other monitor in terms of price to screen qualities, I am not an expert on monitors but I shall tell you these thing are amazeballs in terms of image and I got both of mine for £250 each on offer, so keep and eye on it: http://www.currys.co.uk/gbuk/computing/pc-monitors/pc-monitors/acer-g277hu-full-hd-27-led-monitor-10071549-pdt.html

 

Only probably is they don't support any kind of aftermarket mounts and for three it would push your budget a tad D: But it would give you a proper use for the 1440p powerhouse the GTX 1070 can be :D

I once did the unthinkable, back many headphones ago...

I split an audio split, again
