I currently have a 1080p and 1440p monitor. Both of them are 60hz. I am thinking about getting a 1080p 144hz monitor for CS:GO and gaming in general. If I run my current monitors as desktop/web browser monitors and only game on the 144hz monitor, will my GTX 770 2GB GPU be enough? I've seen people say 3 monitors might require more than 2GB of VRAM but they didn't specify if that was GAMING on 3 monitors or simply HAVING 3 monitors. (Because your gpu still has to render all the pixels on the monitors whether they are gaming or not, I assume)
Will a 2GB 770 be able to handle 3 monitors if I only game on one?

Gaming across 3 monitors needs a lot more video memory, displaying 2D stuff like the desktop or a web browser won't eat up that much memory, it will take a small amount, but not a lot. You're only going to run into problems if you're playing a game that is a huge VRAM hog and needs you to squeeze every last megabyte out of a 2GB card and really needs a 3+GB card to run well, which applies to some recent AAA titles, but doesn't really apply to CS:GO.
