Hi duders. I am considering adding a third monitor to my setup to dip my toe into surround gaming. I'm wondering from users out there who have triple monitor setups if it's something that has had a big impact on your enjoyment of playing your games. I'm just batting around ideas, I have a budget of around 200-ish to spend on myself thanks to tax season (rest goes into savings!) and nothing else is really popping up for me. My primary monitor is a nice Dell IPS and my secondary is a crappy Acer TN. I might be able to stretch to grab another IPS monitor preferably but we'll see.
I'm aware of the performance hit it's going to incur. My hardware is currently:
Asus Maximus VI Impact
Intel Core i5 4670k OC'd to 4.5Ghz
Radeon R9 290
8GB DDR3
It's a fully custom watercooled system I built a while back. Pics of the build log can be found here for anyone interested. I'm mostly interested in the experience and immersion that comes with a triple setup. I don't mind turning down some settings if I have to.
