I've been having this problem for a while now and can't seem to find a fix for it. When i run Skyrim at my resolution with 3 monitors (5760 x 1080 or 5970 x 1080 with bezel correction) i get horrible blocky shadows. When i run it with a single monitor at 1920 x 1080 resolution, the blocky textures are greatly improved. I've seen alot of different tweaks around on forums but not of which work for my resolution. The game also would not let me take a screenshot at that resolution since it just crashes so apologies for no screenshot.
If anyone could help me out with this situation it would be greatly appreciated.

Way back when I had issues with blocky shadows and the laggy shadow cycle being distracting. I did a bunch of research on it and had to make changes to skyrimprefs.ini in order to come up with a scenario I was happy with. Unfortunately I don't remember where I found the solution that worked for me, but I'll paste a copy of my ini file for you to compare against your own. I'm not sure how useful it will be to you since we almost certainly don't use the same mods but hopefully there is something in there that you can use!
