I purchased a computer recently with the intent of gaming and eventually high definition video editing.
Specs:
CPU: i7-4820k overclocked to 4.5 GHz
GPU: Nvidia GTX 780
32 GB 1866 MHz Ram
Ive been playing games on an old small HP monitor that I have but now I am ready to move into a proper monitor (I feel like I am not utilizing the power that is at my disposal) and I have a few questions:
1) How many monitors could I realistically run simultaneously off of a single GTX 780 Graphics card (could 3 work?). Two or Three monitors will be very beneficial for my video editing, but it is really worth it for gaming?
2) If I have two monitors, could I play a game on one while still having access to my desktop and the internet on the other?
3) If I run multiple monitors off of a single graphics card, do they need to be the same monitor or can I mix and match?
4) I am looking for monitors that can run at least 2560 x 1440p. Should I stick to a monitor that is G-Sync Capable?
With these questions in mind, could you guys in the Tom's Hardware Universe of Awesome make some recommendations? Keep in mind that I am looking for monitors that will have a clear and crisp image while keeping accurate and realistic color (my wife also does photography including macro and editing). I am looking for large, preferably 27". I do not have a set budget, I will take that into account once I see what options are out there, but I also would like to avoid $800 dollar monitors so make any and all suggestions you would like and I will listen!
Thank you all in advance for your time and experience!
