Hello I've been looking into getting some more monitors for Christmas. I'm thinking of getting about 2 more on top of the one I have now so that's about three monitors.

What do I need to hook them up? I don't really want to get more graphics cards but if I have to...I will. I use a GTX 760 as my GPU. I do alot of gaming so I don't want these monitors to harm that.

Thanks I look forward to a reply.

All you'd really need is the correct outputs off the GPU to connect them to all three monitors, or if it has DisplayPort, potentially daisy-chaining the three. I'm not really familiar with how well Nvidia's Surround works, but that would be the utility to use if you're wanting to game across all three, though I can't recommend that with a 760.

No I'm not looking to game across all three I'm looking to game on one. and use the rest as lets say social media for example. Or monitoring temps. It's mainly so I don't have to alt tab to look at other things.

In that case, you just need proper cables/connections.
