Monitor Sync help

Hello guys, new member here from Greece and i need your help please!! :)

 

First of all, my system is fx 8350, 8gb 1866Hz ram, Gigabyte G1 Gaming gtx 1070. I am planning to upgrade to a 1440p monitor, now i use a 60Hz LG IPS one (23mp67vq). I have two questions i need help with.

 

1st: Can the 8350 handle the 1440p resolution at higher than 60fps??  and if yes, how stable/consistent will it be???

 

2nd (and most important): If i buy a freesync 1440p monitor, will i be able to benefit the 144Hz refresh rate or without amd gpu i lose everything of it???  

 

G-sync are way too expensive, not even thinking of buying one :)

 

Thanks in advance   :D

1. Yes, it's the GPU that drives resilution, not CPU

2. If the monitor is 144Hz then Freesync or G-Sync it will able to do that.

A crappy CPU like the 8350 will still reduce performance that the PGU could otherwise provide with a better CPU.

well yeah, mostly i am gaming and some slightly video edit because i am starting to work on my youtube channel ( btw  https://www.youtube.com/user/GuitarBill13/videos?shelf_id=0&view=0&sort=dd   some self promotion is never bad, in case you wanna support you new friend   xD  )

 

I know that the 8350 will not get the full potential out of the 1070 but i will upgrade it at some point... (i didn't even buy the gpu, it was a gift..so :P  )

 

but anyway, y gaming mostly......So i will get the 144Hz refresh rate of the freesync monitor with the nvidia gpu but i can not use the freesync feature, right??
