For productivity, a ultrawide, and a wide monitors, are insane.

If, i wanted to do gaming and productivity, which GPU is the best for WQHD (Ultrawide 1440p), and regular 1080p gaming. 

 

Example:

Using the 1440p ultrawide  monitor for gaming, and 1080p monitor for reading the chat while streaming the game. (Note: i only need 60fps, and i only play CS:GO, Overwatch, dota2, and the most demending game is PUBG), and the coding is done by a secondary PC.

 

So, which GPU  is the best for my wallet for 60fps gaming at that res?

 

A 1070? 1070 ti? Or maybe a 1080? Or even a 1080 ti (ps, the last one is too expensive for me to buy, so... yeah..)

1070 will work and would be the minimum recommended. You will get best results with a 1080TI obviously, but a 1080 will do well as well. The 1070TI may be the sweet spot for it though as most games should stay at or above 60 fps.

For CS:GO, overwatch and dota a 1070 at 1440p is fine...PUBG is a very different story...I can't figure out anything with that game...i would say a 1080 because my friend has trouble staying over 6ß fps with his 1070 at 1080p...or he's just an exception
