Can the new iMac support 3+ monitors?

It is my understanding that only the Mac Pro can handle more than 2 monitors. Is that true?

Can the new iMac support 3+ monitors?

From the Apple site:

Simultaneously supports full native resolution on the built-in display and up to 3840 by 2160 pixels on an external display

In addition to the internal display, this model can support an external display up to 3840x2160 via Thunderbolt 2 (4K UltraHD). Third-parties have discovered that it also can support two simultaneous 27-Inch Thunderbolt displays at 2560x1140 each in lieu of a single UltraHD display.

It is my understanding that only the Mac Pro can handle more than 2 monitors. Is that true?

Yes, that appears to be the case.

But the second and third monitors can't run the same resolution as the iMac?

You can connect only 1 5K display to the iMac with Retina 5K Display and it uses both miniDisplay Ports.
