This is what it already looks like, [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] . I just want some advice with monitors. I did have some help but i cant find my other topics but with a set up like this, i want to go dual monitors or have 3, i just have a question about the ones to get. I preferably want to have 24" as i will be tight on space with 3, but do i get 3 1080p, 3 1440p or 3 4k? Also, with the ram.. i do some editing on Photoshop and Sony Vegas, would it be better to go with 2 8gb sticks or 4 4 gb sticks?
I currently have the PSU, Case, SSD. I only want to really only have a custom water loop for my GPU and have a the Kraken for my CPU. If i really like the looks of my rig after it's all built... i may go stupid and overkill and grab a 2nd Titan x for the lols or grab 2 Gtx 980ti as they will be cheaper.
Preferably keeping the rig under £1750GBP and each monitor under £400GBP
Thank you.

Don't get a Titan X, and don't put that rig in a 300R. Grab something like a Define S. Get a 980Ti instead of the Titan X. 980Ti>Titan X.
Once I get my 980Ti, I'll have a similar set-up and I should hopefully be running 3x monitors, a single 1440p panel as my center monitor and two 1080p as surround. It's a good way to go, monitor wise and I'd definitely suggest doing something like that. For 1440p, Dell U2515H is a great panel. For 1080p, AOC i22.

Ah, the case kinda looks nice.
I was thinking of going for the 2 980's but i am new to SLI, but Gta can use up to 10GB of VRAM i heard and i know SLI cards wont add the VRAM together but would they be able to handle that?
I really would want to have the monitors the same looking if not the same. I don't like the mixing of them as i think it looks kinda odd and not really planned. Couldn't i get 3 of them [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] monitors and use them at 1440p on games that i get 60FPS on and if i don't get that, then couldn't i put them to 1080p?
The Define S looks beautiful, i may consider getting that. c:

Where did you hear GTA using 10GB VRAM???
I would rather get 1 4K IPS panel over 3X1080P tbh.

I was online on Gta V where someone was complaining about stutter issues. He said he had 2 titans and with his Gta cranked up in 4K and everything to the max, he used 10gb. I am a little bit skeptical on 3 monitors, i may go for a single 4k monitor and have a 1080p on the side. I like using two as it makes following tutorials so much easier and helps a lot with photoshop and recording.

My 970 that can only use 3.5GB VRAM still maxes GTA V out, easily. So, no, it does not use anywhere near 10GB VRAM. The 6GB VRAM with a 980Ti will be more than enough. The Dell U2515H and AOC i22 look pretty similar anyway so the U2515H as a center panel and AOC panels as surround won't look out of place.

Ah, so what i was told was a bunch of bull, seemed funny that i can run the game on high settings in 1240x1024 with 60FPS at 1.9-2gb. Just searched up a [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] of the Titan x vs Gtx 980ti and the only difference between them two cards is a max of 4fps on 4 different big games and there is a £200 price difference. Defiantly not worth £50 for every FPS. I am glad that i came here to ask for some last changes in it. I do like the AOC and the Dell combo, guess that black and silver may have a nice little combo. I have one last question for RAM, if i was to get 16GB for Photoshop and video editing, is is better to go with 2 sticks of 8gb or for 4 sticks of 4gb?
Also, if i picked 3 monitors, how easy is it to play a game across all 3, i know it will be something like 6000x1440 or what not but how easy will it be to connect and play?
