Any suggestions for games that would span all three? I've tinkered, but haven't found anything worthwhile yet. Civ 6 keeps crashing when I try. I also got my son setup with three monitors, so bonus if there is a coop game.

Some games do right out of the box, while others will use your primary display and ignore the others. Titles like Battlefield 4, Borderlands 2 and Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel, GRID Autosport, Elite: Dangerous, all support three monitors with little additional configuration, you just have to group them first (more on how to do that later.) The Wide Screen Gaming Forum keeps a database of Eyefinity and Surround-capable games here you can search for your favorite titles before you go and buy a second or third display.

Even if your favorite game isn't in that list though doesn't mean it won't work, though. The list only contains games verified to work with multiple panels, so newly released games may not be included yet, and games that require tweaks like third-party mods or FOV (field of view) hacks won't show up either. Do your homework—odds are someone's managed to make your favorite game work. Even if they haven't, there are plenty of other games to choose from.
