Hey guys, I am getting my PC in like 1 freakin month! So excited. Anyways, I am getting a 144hz monitor and I want to make sure that I can use those 144 fps in my games. I want to know if I can get that many FPS (while recording) on CSGO, and Minecraft (I know I can).
So, I want to know, will I be struggling to get those FPS? Or should I be good. I don't really care what Graphics card I get. I could even go to a r9 290 or something like that. Please just let me know. Thanks!



Here is my current setup:

You really aren't messing about with that build, are you? :)
You'll most likely need to apply adaptive Vsync to keep the framerate BELOW 144 FPS in those games!
Just a tiny suggestion, maybe you'll be better off dropping to 8Gb of memory and upping the SSD capacity?

@coozie7 I will be doing YouTube videos, so I want more RAM for rendering videos. Also, I think that 120 GB is enough.

@endeavour37a Thanks for the suggestion about the RAM, I will be keeping the 2 sticks of RAM in case I want to upgrade to 32 GB.
