Which one is better? I dont mind the bezels on the triple 23 inch. I was just thinking that a triple 1080p on portrait mode is the closest you can get for 4k gaming with a friendly budget. My system is a gtx 780 SLI and I am confused with what monitor to get. Any advice please. Thanks. And another thing. 23 inch 1080p has 94 PPI while 27 inch has 108 PPI. Is that a big difference?
 
I'd say it depends on what games you want to play. If you love details and slower paced games then definitely the 1440p. However, the major limitation with 1440p monitors is that they are IPS panels. Which means they can not reach a 2ms response time which is preferred for fast gaming. If you like BF4 then I'd go 3x23/24" 2ms monitors. If you like Skyrim then I'd get a 1440p 5ms monitor.
