I just ordered my new GTX 970!!! (EVGA SSC)

 

I am going to overclock and have a temporary monitor, it is a 1280 x 1024 HP thingy (VGA).

 

in around 2 months i am adding a second 1920 x 1080 IPS monitor, this will mean more pixels.

 

If i overclock now will i have to drop the overclock when i get a second monitor??

 

I don't think so but i don't want to fry my card by adding a second monitor

CPU: Intel Core I5 4590 | GPU: EVGA GTX 970 SSC | Mobo: ASRock Fatality H97 Performance | Ram: HyperX Fury 8gb 1866 | SSD: Intel 520 series 240 GB | HDD: WD Blue 1TB | Case: Aerocool DS 200 red/black | Cooler: Coolermaster Hyper 212X | PSU: Antec High Current Gamer 620w | Monitor: AOC i2367fh & old HP | OS: Windowws 7
