3x Monitor + 1 GPU vs 2 GPU

Alright, so I'm building a new computer. It's pretty high-end. Things such as 4790K, MSI Gaming 7, GTX 970, 16GB DDR3 1866, etc. But my real question is... I have the budget for one of the following:

Option 1) 3x 24" 1080p monitors + 1x GTX 970
Option 2) 2x 27" 1080p monitors + 1x GTX 970
Option 3) 2x GTX 970

Which option should I pick? I currently own 2x 1080p monitors of different make and models and 1x monitor at 1600x1200 and I don't play games with 3 monitors split. I only play games with 1 main monitor, skype and small things on another, and webbrowsing and maybe other things on another monitor.

Edit: The reason why I considered new monitors was because I wanted a VESA mountable monitor that all matches. Having different make and model monitors are fine, but it's just the OCD that gets me.
Edit2: To clarify, I own an HP 2311x (23-inch), Samsung SB24B150 (24-inch), and some generic Dell that runs on 1600x1200.

Option 2 may be most suitable, but if you already have 2 1080p monitors that run well, go with option 3. You'll enjoy the 2 GTX 970's together

Thanks a lot for your thought! I really appreciate it. I'm really leaning towards Option 1 and 3, so I might take your advice with going with option 3. I'd just like more thoughts and opinions if possible from other people.
