on topic, is this with some games only?
maybe the particular games are not sli-friendly.
are all monitors have the same refresh rate?
have you tried downgraing nvidia driver pack to previous version?
have you tried upgrading nvidia driver pack to the latest beta version?
have you tried disabling sli profile to rule out sli issue?
yes this happens in games only, all games. I have both my side monitors on hdmi and the middle monitor on dvi. I played these games fine before the driver update but because hdmi looks washed out on nvidia cards i used a free tool that turns hdmi to full rgb. But screen tearing ONLY happens in 5760x1080 res in games, when i change the resolution the 1920x1080 in the game while still having surround activated in ncp. 1920x1080 uses my middle monitor only and i dont get screen tearing then. i have not tried downgrading becuase i need these drivers for far cry 4 to work in sli mode, yes all monitors are the exact same model, and in nv surround mode sli is force enabled but as i said, i only get screen tearing at 5760x1080 not 1920x1080 in games.
1920x1080 res = fine
i think the games do not yet support that resolution.
try to look under nvidia control panel or geforce experience to automatically download game profiles which may improve gaming experience.
try to lower game resolution (below 5750x1080) to point where there is no more screen tearing.
all games worked fine before driver update to 344.75, but now they tear, and i play bf4 on ultra preset 5760x1080 but it has screen tearing now along with the rest of my games in 5760x1080 which is driving me insane! i want to ask, can a driver possibly do this to all my games?
EDIT: and i already have geforce experience
it could be game profiles are not properly loaded because of leftover files from previous driver pack (vs possibility that 344.75 inherently cause the tearing problem).
ok so you suggest i reinstall the drivers, i did tick the clean installation box in geforce experience with this instal i did though
How much video memory does each card have?
What type of monitors do you have?
Screen tearing occurs when the graphics card is out of sync with the monitor refresh rate Hz. It's two or more frames appearing on the screen at the same time.
Understand FPS coming from the graphics card is variable, refresh Hz on the monitor however isn't.
V-sync - This can help sometimes by locking the FPS to a set value (say 60 FPS), so long your graphics card can keep up it should resolve screen tearing.
G-sync - If your monitors support this, it can sync the monitor to the Nvidia graphic cards, resulting in much smoother as their is no delay being millisecond waiting periods.
Higher refresh rate monitors - 120Hz / 144Hz will also appear much smoother compared to a standard 60Hz monitor, specially if your graphic card can produce more than 60 FPS.
Firstly, make sure all monitors are set to the same refresh rate Hz.
Go here: http://www.geforce.com/hardware/technology/surround/system-requirements
Under the Surround Configuration Tool, fill in your setup, and look at it's requirements and various connection options. Follow those instructions, it will normally tell you the center monitor should be plugged into the first card, etc.
ps: Screen tearing has nothing to do about the drivers - unless it's a major performance issue with them.
yes, i know, my gpu's are 980's and im am getting monster fps with them, but as i said all my monitors are using 60hz and are the exact model, and im using on card 1, the dvi and hdmi port, now on card 2 im using the hdmi port. should i try install drivers again? because surround worked fine before driver update and full RGB over hdmi tool fix. so in this order is my monitors... [HDMI] [DVI] [HDMI]... and the tearing happens only on the dvi monitor in the middle.
Don't install the GeForce Experience; or at least turn auto-updates off.
Latest Driver is not always the best.
i tryed all the drivers to as low as 344.60 and none fixed it :/, im starting to think its because there on my middle dvi monior only, is 2 monitors with hdmi and 1 with dvi and because hdmi is 59.94hz it does something but idk can someone please help me im falling to my knees :( the screen tearing is still there, i reinstalled 344.75 for now but i really need someones help to fix this issue im having, everyone has been really nice suggesting i do stuff but nothing is helping it :( i was playing fine before i updated my drivers for unity and fc4, but now the drivers i was on has screen tearing as well, i dont think its a driver issue but that doesnt explain how i was playing fine about a week ago without unity and fc4 drivers, if someone could help fix this it would be great :)

if that fails, check if you still have nvidia driver pack 344.75
uninstall current driver pack and reboot computer.
install nvidia driver pack 344.75 and reboot computer.
post what happens.

alternate, maybe posting in nvidia surround forum will yield better results:
i have the 344.75 drivers installed currently, what is a driver pack? and yes my res is 5870x1080 (bezel corrected) 60hz, ill make an account and try the geforce forums tomorrow with EXTREME LUCK its nothing on the hardware side of things but just the refresh rate difference or something :/ (im sure its not, as my pc is from PCCG and it has been working for about 3 - 4 weeks until the screen tearing appeared)
EDIT - this also sounds like my issue http://help.howproblemsolution.com/471434/nvidia-drivers-after-344-11-causing-screen-tearing-on-surround
Happens in all games and have noticed one or two bugs on windows as well. Hoping nvidia have caught onto the problem and will fix soon.
Try swapping them around, so another monitor is in the middle (or different cables - HDMI / DVI). Check if that makes any difference or not?
Yes, different refresh rates per monitor can cause the other to tear. Under each monitors advanced settings > properties > monitor (tab) > the screen refresh rate should be set to the same for all monitors if possible.
Perhaps the latests drivers affected the screen refresh rate a tad, but in that case you should be able to set them back or just roll back the drivers.
If your using GeForce Experience Software to set your game settings, also check if your V-Sync has been turned off? V-Sync (in-game settings) locks the FPS, which can help with screen tearing issues as well. Or if it's changed the screen buffering mode (triple buffering, etc).
