I have a GTX 780 ti and I was wondering if I could set up 3 monitors on one card? It has an hdmi (for one of my generic 60 hz monitors) and 2 DVI ports (One for possibly my new monitor (@144 hz) and one for my other generic @60hz monitor. The thing I was wondering is 1. If I could run 3 monitors and 2.how bad will my graphics drop if I'm using all three at the same time but not 3D... I obviously plan on using the 144 hz as my main display and worst comes the worst, I'll just use the 144 hz monitor while playing GPU intensive games or even Just the 144 hz and one generic 60 hz monitor.
My PC specs -
CPU - i7 4770k
GPU - Geforce GTX 780 ti (1)
16g of ram
motherboard - Z87X-PC Gigabyte (ultra durable)
PSU - 1000w Corsair

To answer your questions in order:

1) Yes you can, assuming you stick to the suggested configuration you just posted.
2) Pretty low. 5760x1080 is pretty demanding. Look up some benchmarks on single 780 Ti performance at that resolution. you'll be able to play some games across all 3 manageably if you turn some settings down but some will hit you pretty hard if you try to run at ultra on that resolution.

Also, I'm not sure that many games support spanning on just two montiors, especially first person shooters, otherwise your crosshair will show up where your bezel is and it makes aiming hard XD

Thanks, Craig... I decided to buy it and try it and everything is working great. :) I meant by playing the game on 1 monitor and having the others for things like the internet broswer/spotify/etc.

Ahh, well in that case everything should run like smooth butter on just the one monitor. There is no noticeable performance impact for running multiple monitors while gaming on a single monitor. Enjoy! ;)
