So I have recently been thinking about getting a second monitor for my computer to use as a chat screen or changing music/videos in the background while I play. Then I remembered that Nvidia has something called Surround that allows you to run a game on 3 monitors.
Out of curiousity, how much more of a drain on system resources would this be? Also, would I ideally need the same monitor to not get differences in color/brightness? My rig is: i7 4790k, 16GB RAM, GTX 970 (factory overclocked), 128 GB SSD, and a 1TB HDD. The main game I play is Final Fantasy 14, and I currently get 60-100 fps on max settings (depending on if I'm in a town with a bunch of players, or out in the world). Probably won't end up running the 3 monitors unless it's only a slight resource drain (which I doubt). Thanks1
