Hey i'm new to forum and currently in process of build a tri monitor gaming rig and need some advice. I mostly play mmorpgs and RTSs but would like a system not to limited. I have not set a budget as long as the purchases make sense.
Monitor Firstly start with this because the build is set around powering these three monitors. Asus PG278Q ROG Swift 27". What i like about it ticks all the boxes in regards to a gaming monitor. What i hate is that i'd be paying $400 dollars more for the price of £690 it cost in the uk. Since these monitors are not out i'm open to suggestions.

I didn't know how to use basket resourcse so i used part picker -mercants

CPU: Intel Core i7-4790K 4.0GHz Quad-Core Processor
CPU Cooler: Corsair H110 94.0 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler
Motherboard: Asus MAXIMUS VII FORMULA ATX LGA1150 Motherboard
Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
Storage: Seagate Desktop HDD 4TB 3.5" 5900RPM Internal Hard Drive
Video Card: Asus GeForce GTX 780 Ti 3.0GB Platinum Video Card
Video Card: Asus GeForce GTX 780 Ti 3.0GB Platinum Video Card
Case: Corsair 760T Black ATX Full Tower Case
Power Supply: Corsair 860W 80+ Platinum Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply
Total: £2204.35

I'm still debating if to watercool and most probably be upgrading my peripherals.
Any advice would be appreciated.

i have 256 Samsung ssd from my old rig and thinking maybe buy another for some raid 0 action. The 4tb was to consolidate all my old miscellaneous hd into one place.

What gfx cards would i need to run 3x 1440p @ 144hz
 
Raid 0 ssds is pretty pointless to be honest. Better off using two separate ones.

And I'm no expert on cards by any means but I'm sure there's other members who can give you some solid advice, although I'd say minimum 780ti per monitor but you would be better off waiting for the 800 series cards
