So I currently have the GW2765HT (27", 1440p, 60hz) I have two side monitors but these are cheap £100 TN 1080p monitors (one is even a TV). I currently have the EVGA 1070 FTW edition too.

I'm looking at buying 2 more GW2765HT to have a triple monitor setup. Majority of the time I will only be gaming on the middle screen, however I'd like to be able to use the triple set up for racing games, for example iRacing or Dirt.

I can find little to none information regarding if this is going to be do-able with my 1070. I understand I wont be able to smash it on super ultra or whatever but I'd love to know if its worth doing cause If I have to drop the game down to low then I wont bother.

What kind of impact can I expect? I'd like to know before dropping £600 on 2 more monitors.

PS: I was torn between posted this in Monitors or GPU, which would be best?
 

Thanks for the maths behind it, I can see the sheer amount of stress I'd be putting on my system as a whole. It does make me want to reconsider buying these monitors a lot.

I have considered 21:9 but I use my side monitors just as much as my main. My main gaming is mostly racing or survival and adventure games. I'd say 30% racing, 70% others so my other monitors are quite heavily used for information/maps/guides/wiki/youtube/netflix/whatnot. And with a 21:9 I'd not be able to do this.

Its a tough choice I'm stuck in at the moment. I've considered going back to 1080p but 1440p is just way too beautiful.
