Doing my first SLI setup with 2 Gigabyte 970 G1 Gaming i got second hand, currently waiting for my asrock extreme6 z97. I unexpectedly bought 2 Lg S24C350HL because they were a price i couldn't pass. However my intention was to get a Asus MG279Q eventually (or any monitor of similar price an spec). The LG monitors only feature HDMI and VGA (ugh gross) and the I/O for the G1 Gaming features 1 HDMI, 3 Displayport, 2 DVI. Which leads to my questions

1 How can I arrange the monitor cables? Can I use 1 HDMI on each 970 for the LG monitors or do they need to be on the same card?

2 I only plan on using the LG monitors for productivity, and the 1440p for running my games. Does this create any issues? The plan is LG monitors on the sides running 1080p @60hz and center monitor 1440p @144hz
