Hey, Ian! Good to see you, hope you're well!
Same here! (IIRC, you were the person who recommended the FirePro V4900
to me back in the day.)
I think that's right! I loved mine, and it lasted for a LONG time. Yours
has lasted longer, though! 😮
Are you using DVI monitors? The RX550 will do what you need, but the
WX 2100, 3100, or 3200 will all do three or more DisplayPort monitors
if you're using DisplayPort, and use native drivers.
The 2 1920x1200 displays have DVI and DisplayPort inputs (no HDMI). The
2K display has DVI, DisplayPort, and HDMI, but the HDMI input only
supports an older standard (1.4?), and it doesn't seem to work well at
2560x1440, 60Hz.
If I purchased something like this[1], I would use the DisplayPort
output for the 2K display, the DVI output for one of the 1920x1220
displays, and the HDMI output (with either a dongle or an HDMI-DVI
cable) for the other 1920x1200 display.
This would allow me to use at least 2 of my existing cables. (If you
recall, my case is positioned a fair distance away from my displays, so
cables can be somewhat expensive.)

I do remember! Yeah, your idea makes more sense. And that card is priced
really well! Hard to go wrong with an AMD card. As mentioned on another
response, the native drivers are pretty stellar. I really regret having
bought the NVidia card I have now, it's something of a pain to keep up
with the drivers. The RPM Fusion akmod drivers have been very, very
solid, though, so it's bearable. Next big system I build will absolutely
use an AMD video card. NVidia kinda sucks with Linux.
