I was thinking about doing a personal rig upgrade with 2 new lg 34uc87c monitors, but I do not know if a GTX 970 can power both of them.

 

does anyone know if it can handle them.

Radeon R9 390 is a better choice, it's more powerful than a GTX 970 and has twice as much VRAM to support higher resolutions. Also, it costs about the same.

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D GPU: AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT 16GB GDDR6 Motherboard: MSI PRESTIGE X570 CREATION
AIO: Corsair H150i Pro RAM: Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB 32GB 3600MHz DDR4 Case: Lian Li PC-O11 Dynamic PSU: Corsair RM850x White

Depends on if you're gaming on both or just one, if it's just one then maybe, though I'd recommend getting a 980, 980ti, r9 290x, or similar.

Specs: CPU - Intel i7 8700K @ 5GHz | GPU - Gigabyte GTX 970 G1 Gaming | Motherboard - ASUS Strix Z370-G WIFI AC | RAM - XPG Gammix DDR4-3000MHz 32GB (2x16GB) | Main Drive - Samsung 850 Evo 500GB M.2 | Other Drives - 7TB/3 Drives | CPU Cooler - Corsair H100i Pro | Case - Fractal Design Define C Mini TG | Power Supply - EVGA G3 850W

no gaming just web browsing, graphic design, and photo editing.
