Hello all,
I need a >27 Inch Display For CAD Design
Graphics Card: GTX 1070 soon to be SLI 1070

Dell UltraSharp U2717D 430$
ASUS MX27AQ 430$
LG 27UD68-P 460$
If non of these, what would you suggest?

Thanks

Ultrawide 3440x1440 is quite nice for work but I found that the curve displays are annoying for work but perhaps you will get use to it.
If you can not stand the curve effect on CAD (I can not stand it), pick the LG 34UM88.
The other 2 are curved monitors.
Curve is ok tho' for movies and games, Dell U3415W is my favorite.
For CAD work:

1. Get better a single GTX1080 instead of 2x GTX1070. I dunno if CAD works can gain advantage over SLI.

2. 4k IPS is better by far for work but make sure you have also a screen at least 32", preferable 40".
4k screen below 32" is not really useful in my opinion. You will see more on the screen but things will be too small.
