I have the following monitors:

Philips 4k monitor
Asus pa238q
Asus vg248qe - G-sync
Aoc IPS panel
Dell 1080p touchscreen.

I'm looking at getting rid of some of them and maybe replacing some of them other than the Philips 4k.

I love the Philips 4k.

However...
I've recently got back in to playing CS:GO and I'm apparently half as good on my 4k monitor as I am on my 1080p G-Sync.
I think I'm struggling with the size of the monitor for FPS use and also it's not fast enough and the refresh rate is too low.

This wouldn't be an issue IF my dual Titans (Original) shipped with more than one display port on each card... they didn't...
So with SLI enabled, I can only have one of these monitors plugged in at any one time (The Philips won't do 4k @ 60hz on anything other than display port and the G-Sync only has display port).

So
I want to keep the PA238Q (Probably) and get one more monitor.

I like the idea of either:

X\/
X/\

Where the big X is my 4k and the other 2 are smaller monitors.
The other option is to replace them all with a larger monitor (27" maybe).

I will get a Pascal card or 2 next year which will solve this problem; but I don't want so many monitors kicking around doing nothing...

I've have tried an HDMI -> Display port cable to no avail on both monitors.
So what I think I'm looking for is a good 24" / 27" monitor 1ms response time 120hz+ to play FPS games on (must have HDMI / Displayport in minimum) Suggestions please.
