Running 144hz monitor does not directly effect GPU temperature. You will very likely see an increase in GPU temperature because you are having to work the card significantly harder to pump out more frames per second (FPS). 144hz effectively means you can output 144FPS to the screen and it can display it, most standard screens are 60hz and therefore 60FPS. So basically you are asking the graphics card to double it's FPS output which means it's going to use more RAM and require more processing, therefore this will likely lead to an increase in temperature. But there is no hard and fast rule to this, a GPU in standard setup will not go beyond it's processing capability so it's only going to get as hot as it's designed to (providing your...

But there is no hard and fast rule to this, a GPU in standard setup will not go beyond it's processing capability so it's only going to get as hot as it's designed to (providing your case is sufficiently ventilated). So it's not 'dangerous' to run it at 144hz but you need to keep an eye on your temperatures and GPU load. Also your card will not pull more power than it's designed to (if not overclocked) so yes it may use more power also but again it's going to be within tolerance.

Thanks guys, one more question. When I plug in my 144hz monitor, will my FPS drop or saty the same as it did with a 60hz minitor. So now with 60hz I get around 300 on CSGO, will I get the same ammount of FPS on a 144hz?

In theory your FPS should stay the same, if you already running without vsync and therefore chucking 300fps at your 60fps screen then your graphics card should not see any change in heat or performance as you are already outputting more FPS than 144mhz monitor requires. It just means that with a 144mhz monitor you are going to get smoother playback with less chance of screen tearing.

Yeap, I don't use v-sync currently and running atleast 190fps on every map in every scenario on csgo. So I guess I'm fine
