Performance Impact while having monitoring/communication software on second monitor while playing games.

[swiftattacker]

So I have recently gotten 2 monitors(one is much larger than the other, with the smaller one being my primary), and was wondering if having monitoring software(MSI Afterburner, Task Manager) and Discord on the second(larger) monitor while playing games(Overwatch, Rocket League, ARK etc) will heavily affect the usage of my GPU and such and/or if it will affect the FPS(that badly). This is a pretty used card from my friend who 24/7 bitmined on it so I want to know what im getting into before I begin the process as to make it so I don't heavily batter the PC.

My specs(in general) are

GTX 1060 6 GB

Cooler Master CPU water cooler(forgot which model exactly)

NZXT S340

AMD Ryzen 5 1600x

Monitoring apps have an impact, but it is pretty small. You might lose 5 FPS. I run with 2 monitors all the time and I love it.
