Asus Rog new 1440p monitor will be out soon claiming a 1ms response time, i have a reg Asus 1440p at 5ms, so if i were to get the new one and another regular one for a 3 way setup would the response timing cause an input lag of sorts or would the card make them all the same times? or if i went the route of keeping the one i have and getting 2 korean ones do the repsonse times need to be the same? same with the HZ for each one... i do know for a 3 way they all display same resolution. Thanks in advance!

That new monitor is going to be 120 Hz. The response times won't matter in a multimonitor setup, but the refresh rate will. It'd be a waste to get that 120 Hz 2560x1440 and put it in eyefinity with a 60 Hz monitor.
Basically the reason response times don't matter and the refresh rates do is your computer doesn't see/care about reponse times. That's just a monitor spec just like brightness and contrast. In eyefinity every monitor has to be running at the same refresh rate so the 120 Hz monitor would be a waste of money when it would only run at 60 Hz. Now I would really love to see this rig of yours that can run 7680x1440.
