GTX1060 Dual monitor

Can my GTX1060 run a 144hz display and a 4K display at the same time?

As long as you're not usin it for anything strenuous, such as gaming or video editing.  That's quite a bit of power required for an entry-level card.  That card is mainly for 1080p gamin at medium to low-ultra settings, so a 4k and a 144Hz would be quite a bit for such an entry level/just above entry level card.

 

You also need adequate cooling for your processor, since more monitors and higher refresh rates increase the demand on it and can cause overheating; so no stock Intel coolers.

If it just for displaying output then you're good to go, I guess you'll using the 144hz for gaming and 4K for media consumption? Not recommending gaming on 4k with 1060 tho the fps will be low (in Triple A titles)

Not for gaming on both of those but just desktop or some YT video and a game should be fine.
