Posted September 12, 2018 Good Day, Everyone! I recently upgraded my PC aside from my PSU, my pheriperals (mouse, keyboard, monitor and speakers) and some of my hard drives. Below are the new specs: CPU: Intel i5-8400 RAM: 16GB G.Skill DDR4 2400hz GPU: Palit GeForce 1070ti Dual SSD: Samsung EVO 250GB HDD: Seagate 3TB + 2 existing Seagate 1TB PSU: Corsair 450w MB: Gigabyte Gaming (forgot the exact unit) Monitor: LG E2442 - I know this one needs an upgrade as well. Soon! My question is, can it handle a triple monitor setup at 1080p? (I don't have a lot of Ultra or Quad HD content so 1080p works fine for me.) Or do you suggest getting a single ultrawide monitor instead? I mainly use it for content consumption, photo editing and a little bit of gaming.

Posted September 12, 2018 It will support resolution up to 7680x4320@60Hz. You're fine as long the card has enough display Connectors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted September 12, 2018 A nice ultrawide is eye candy for anyone, but they're expensive. Your GPU can definitely support 3 1080p monitors.

Posted September 12, 2018 only thing i worry about is that 450w psu. it sure is enough, but some headroom wont hurt with such pricy components. as for your question, yes 3x 1080p will work just fine. a 1070ti can drive 4k quite well, wich is 4x 1080p when looking at the amount of pixels. you may want to look up triple monitor support for your games tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
