Hello,
My specs are:

Win7 64bit
Asus Z170-A motherboard
600w Antec PSU
16gb DDR4 3200 ram
Intel i5-6500 CPU
Nvidia Geforce 1050ti Graphic card SSC (2 fans)
3-32in. 720p LED flat panels as display for PC (All 3 TV's connected to the graphic card)(1-DVI-D, 1-HDMI, 1-DP 1.4)

I use this rig particularly for gaming. GTA5, Battlefield 1, Just Cause 3, etc.
I am looking to find a graphic card to work great with these specs to be able to push smooth graphics with gaming across the displays.
I used Nivida's surround setup for the screen and it was set at 5760x780 I believe it was or 5760x1080. One of these 2. Anyway I had to disable nvidia surround because the games that were able to work with 3 displays were very choppy. Card couldn't push.

So I am asking if anyone can recommend a graphic card to push what I am trying to do with the specs I have? Thanks.

Sorry I couldn't be of more assistance.

You could possibly try playing at 720p but even then the overall resolution is going to be 3840x720. But that's still quite a bit higher than even 1080p and the 1050 Ti is only going to be able to run say Skyrim SE, at about 50fps on High at 1080p. If you lower the resolution and lower the settings to low, you may be able to get up to 60 on some older AAA titles (that's not assuming the FoV stressing the GPU more than a simple resolution change which it most definitely will), but for new games, I wouldn't hold my breath. Try just one monitor for those. You should be able to change the native resolution for each monitor via the NCP and set them all to 1280x720. It's worth a shot I guess, but it...

If you want to game on a setup like that you're going to want to upgrade the CPU and the GPU both. A 6500 isn't bad but with how hard you're going to be pushing the GPU (basically any GPU is going to be pushing pretty hard) the CPU will become the bottleneck.

For that resolution I would say no less than an i7 paired with a 1080 or maybe even a 1080 Ti, for 60fps and up on Ultra settings.

The problem with display setups like that is they require insane amounts of cash to buy the parts that will run them well.... My tower alone and all the components inside are around $4,500, but it runs my Acer Predator X34 like a charm. I'm going to assume that 5760x1080 and 3440x1440 are close enough in pixel count to say that you will need a 1080 or Ti to run them on high settings at 60+fps.


Edit: Actually did the math. A 3x 1080 monitor setup is actually between 21:9 2k and 4k resolutions. With that knowledge nothing less than a 1080 will give you playable action on a setup like that. Esp on BF1, and for that if you wanted to play on Ultra 100% scaling, 60fps, a 1080 Ti is the only thing that will do that.

OK...sounds logical but I just recently upgraded this pc 2 months ago and now have the 3 displays just added to it 2 days ago. Do I really have to use that high resolution? Can I just lower it?

It's worth a shot I guess, but it won't be a great gaming experience. There's only so much a wider FoV can help at low resolutions.
