I'm running a 1070, binary drivers, and KDE. I've been running Fedora 24 
and I just upgraded to F25. I don't know if I'm running wayland or X, 
regardless everything has been flawless. I have 3 monitors left to right 
with the sides being 1920x1080 and the center being 2560x1440.

I have had a lot of luck with the oss nvidia driver, except the fan 
would run a lot, otherwise it was fine. I stuck with the binary driver 
because it works.

I have a script that runs in .profile when I log in that puts my 
monitors where I want them.

xrandr --output DVI-D-0 --primary --preferred --auto --output DP-0 
--auto --left-of DVI-D-0 --output DP-2 --auto --right-of DVI-D-0


Not sure, again, if that is doing anything, as I don't know if I'm 
running wayland or not. I haven't bothered to look. I just know it works 
and so am I.
