Hello,
I wanted to upgrade my pc in order to be able to achieve 144 fps on the monitor pg27uq (UHD 144Hz) and to improve overall performance.
I use my pc for gaming, programming, and 3d modeling (the update is just for gaming purposes, i can model and program just fine with my current pc).

Questions:
- Can my case fit this mobo?
- Do you think that with a safe OC i can reach 144 fps on today’s big titles and exploit the 4k 144 Hz?
- If i can afford the pg27uq do you think it s worth?
- Should i wait for the next generation of cpu/gpu to upgrade my pc?
- if no, is there any change you would make to this build?
