I have a single 32" 1440p monitor, if I were to go surround which additional monitors would you guys recommend. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm only going to have SLI GTX 980s so nothing to crazy.
 
the same ones?

Are you aware that NVidia's implementation does NOT support different resolutions for surround? they must be the same.

Ugh didnt know that. If I were to choose 3 1080p monitors which would you recommend?

Bah, my browser is wonky... links open new tabs but give me "F(1x1) or E(1x1)" type errors and dont load the page.

Anyway...if you are going to collect 3 monitors with two 980 sli's, grab 120hz/144hz screens(which are probably in your link).

Asus or BenQ I would suggest @ 24'' per screen. If you have an insanely large desk, grab 27'' screens! :D Some may say @27'' you will see flaws, but I say you will be to immersed to concentrate on the flaws and be paying more attention to how you have just been immersed into a game! :D

(I have the xl2720T, which is 120hz rather than 144hz)

Here is a 1440p 120hz IPS if GTG response time isnt an issue for you

Prior to my single 120hz, I ran 2 27'' and 1 24'' @ 1080p 60hz and still had an extraordinary fully immersed gaming experience.

Thanks!
 
just don't underestimate the size of three 27inch monitors. huge size difference over ~22-24"

I held a 23" surround setup just fine, but now on 27" and I wish I had gone with a bigger desk :(

Thanks for all the help guys. I've decided to stick with current display setup after all.

Man that's a beastly case.
