Nothing will be broken, but performance might be an issue. The GPU will be pushed, but assuming adequate cooling, the card won't be damaged.

Hi,

 

I have recently got a 144hz monitor and a WQHD display, I have a nvidia gtx 960 2gb version, anyway what I want to know is can the monitor cause any issues on the computer / monitor such as straining the graphics card or monitor breaking?

 

I know this is a daft question but I want some advice

 

Thanks in advance

You are going to have to give more context than just "what?"

No. Computers have been using high refresh rates for over 20 years

As @Lord Mirdalan stated you will stress the card a lot and as long as it has a good cooler it should be fine, but 2GB of Vram isn't a lot especially for 1440p. You should of probably gotten a 1440p 60hz display because the 960 will have a tough time getting anything above that depending on the games you play.
