pc help

Will my PC be able to support my main 144hz monitor, and 2 other 60hz monitors that I'm planning on getting soon.

Specs:
Processor: i7-7700
Graphics Card: GTX 1060 3GB
RAM: 16GB
120GB SSD Drive
1TB Hard Drive

Looking to play Fortnite on decently high settings, and also FPS games such as Overwatch.

maybe, a 1060 3gb has power but don't know if it's enough for that 144fps at high settings with multiple monitors. yes if streamer settings

get an i5-8600(k) instead of the i7. It offers around the same, if not better performance, for cheaper! (its what i got and it works wonders)

Don't know if the 3GB 1060 will be able to run 144hz on fortnite high settings, but it will prob be able to run overwatch and csgo (light games) no problem

Will it be able to run 1 144hz monitor? What's the difference between the i5-8600 and the i7-7700, is it because of the overclocking feature?

Alright.[DOUBLEPOST=1553970474][/DOUBLEPOST]Looking for more opinions on this.

Get a GTX 1660, the 3gb VRAM will not hold up for modern titles, and the extra power is definitely needed for those displays. It's only around $200 as well.

Will upgrade eventually, this is what I have to do with right now.

Regarding the i5 and the i7, they do the same, if not, better, depending on the clock speed of your CPU and the i5 in question. Overclocking is featured in CPUs that have the "K" at the end, meaning that the CPU's features are "unlocked" (the initial "K" has to do with someone called Kaby lake but that's irrelevant.)[DOUBLEPOST=1554146235][/DOUBLEPOST]

And the i5 goes for cheaper than the i7, incase you haven't already bought your specs

gtx 1660 (ti if you can)
240gb ssd 500gb hdd (you wont need that much)
i5-9600k (fortnits is super cpu reliant)
overwatch is really easy to run 144 so dw about that

Instead of doing this, just use the "up thread" close to the top of the page.

There is no up thread in this category, lmfao.

I would recommend getting the i5 listed above and a GTX 1070. Yes, the price is higher, but considering you’re trying to run a 3 monitor setup while gaming it’s worth it. If you tell me your max budget I can spend some time looking into the best spec’s for you.

Thanks, I'll probably wait a few years, then I'll just buy a new pc all together. Will one 60hz monitor, and 144hz main monitor do well with gaming?
