I'm thinking of purchasing a new monitor and I started to look at multiple displays and now I'm torn. I am currently running a single R9 290 card and a monitor that's making the card look like trash. I've read that eyefinity setups are largely simulation based and rather disappointing in the first person shooter setting especially in the framerate department. I feel this single card would negate the benefits of having a 144hz monitor if I tried to run 3 of them at once.
Would I be better off with just one really nice monitor?
I also read that display port has a bandwidth cap so in reality I couldn't run all 3 through a single Displayport and stay at 144hz but this left me to question if using different display types if 3x 144hz monitors could be achieved or if the bandwidth cap is more than just the display port cap.
Basically, one of these, or three of these?
Also I might be upgrading to the 8gig version of the Rx 480 depending on where it lands on the benchmarks once aftermarket coolers are introduced. Not sure if this will change your answer so I thought I'd add it. I don't think any other parts of my build are required but that can be found here.(fans not included)
