Sure that's a good setup for 1080p 144Hz. Different games have different performance, you won't get 144fps in every game.

I'd probably get a better CPU cooler, Cryorig H5 or better. Intel CPUs run warmer than they used to, so 70C is a pretty steep limit if you're talking about stress testing. Gaming though, most games you'd be alright with the Hyper 212 without OC'ing and stay at or around 70C. I'd imagine a stress test at [strike]stock [/strike] (*4.3GHz on all cores) you'd see around 75C.

I'm getting my figures based on my i7-7700K and a Cryorig H7 I had. Not sure if the 8600K runs cooler or warmer, but I'd guess it's about the same.
