Cheap triple Monitor Setup

Looking for a cheap triple monitor setup for gaming, video and photo editing etc. Preferably under £500 all in. Not looking for anything higher than 1080p. Slim bezel if possible. Any recommendations?

I had 3 of these and they were fantastic ...

personally I'd go for a big middle screen and two cheap (possibly 2nd hand) side screens to get the best results, something like:

19" 1280x1024 (4:3) - 32" or 40" (16:9) 1440p or 4K - 19" 1280x1024 (4:3)

you should be able to do that for around £500, and bezel size is less of a problem because the middle screen is big enough that its in your peripheral vision.

If you go for 3 x 24" 1080p what you end up with is a strip of workspace/veiwing area and all manner of FoV problems because you are so wide and those bezels are a pain for gaming.

I was actually looking at getting these exact monitors for my setup, I'm just waiting for Overclockers to get these back in stock, as I don't wish to pay the exctra £15 per monitor on Amazon.

If its a well priced 1080 triple setup you want you wont be disappointed with these the colour matching out of the box was spot on, they were pretty quick and I saw no motion blur at all.

what GPU are you going to use them on ?

Sorry, but this is simply bad advice, they're TN screens 1080p panels, we're in 2016, I have no problem with TN screens inherently, I mean my favourite monitor was a Samsung 23" 120HZ TN, but that was leaps and bounds better than the asus linked here (And I had my Samsung from like 2012-2014).
You've got a habit of professing your personal slanted opinions on others and it's wrong.

OP, 21:9 might be your best bet if it's something you're after, something with Freesync/Gsync. We are after all, in 2016, or go for 3 1080p IPS/VA panels (Heck, you could even get Freesync screens)
