Hey,
So I recently built a budget gaming computer, and just got a second matching monitor for Christmas. Since dual monitors work well for multitasking, but are certainly not made for gaming, I was thinking about getting a 3rd matching monitor. I don't expect to get high FPS when using all 3 monitors for gaming, but will they be so low to not be worth it? I am assuming a 3rd monitor would mainly put more stress on my GPU, but is it more/equally dependent on my dedicated memory or CPU or something? Any really technical answers would be appreciated, since I would like to understand how 3 monitors function vs. 1 monitor for games. Thanks!
