think the newer 980's do run 4k better. seems you have lots of cash to... burn.. so if 3x 4k for it to work needs a serious machine.

I'm running a 5960x w/ 3x 980sc's... other then adding a fourth card, there's really nothing out there that's reasonably more high ed than what I already have .. so, the only questions really is, am I setting myself up for disappointment with this setup?

4K is a burden on my single GTX 980, I do not expect you to be happy with triple screen 4K at this point in time.
Here is a performance capture of Caustic Valley @ 4k res, all settings Very High with PostAA

Exactly what I was thinking -- not too shabby for everything maxxed out!
Anyway, thanks all for some very helpful comments. based on the feedback I've gotten here and on the overclock forum, I'm going to stay away from 4k for now... the general consensus I'm getting is that it's real pretty, but since I use my rig 80% of the time for business apps, the scaling issues in windows will likely drive me nuts. I feel confident that my 3x sli can handle one, maybe 2 4k monitors ... but not until the optimization and drivers catch up. And the monitors are still advancing almost on a monthly basis, and dropping in price.. Anyway, thanks.

You might be able to run 3 x 4k with a quad SLI setup, but your settings would have to be really low I think.

seeing as you have 980's; do turn on DSR in Nvidia driver and try it out in MWO
performance issues aside (those will be horrible as in 3x 4k and not the best SLI support), the UI doesn't scale
have a look

Personal preference matters, too.... I would rather have the frame rate in battle (very difficult to brawl at 25-30 fps...). But, again, personal preference

But from what I've been reading, A Single 980TI will give you the same performance as SLI 670s. So a GTX1080 or even SLI 980TI would give you a stable 60FPS @ 5890x1080 at MAX everything. The only problem is the mech-bay isn't really designed or set up for 3 screens.

Actually, you can do Tomb Raider at 4K x3 with Ultra settings at almost 30 FPS, so, I'm pretty sure you could do MWO with some settings turned down/off with no problems at 4K x3. And the benchmarks I found were not even OC'd. Now, I personally think you are better off at 1440P x3, but thats just me. I prefer the higher frame rates over the pixels.

As someone who has used multi-monitor in the past, I've very happy with my current 42" 4K TV (using it as a monitor). It's not curved, but I sit a little over 2 feet away from the screen, and it's quite immersive already (it's very close to the maximum limit of my peripheral vision).
