    If you look at my "spoiler" you see that with this setup I can run highest graphics setting on 3440x1440 at 100Hz.

    What is your budget and what screens do you intend to run? Single screen, triples, VR? Resolution?

    Regarding CPU, Raceroom is an unusual case these days because it basically only uses one core, so single core performance should be your priority over core count. Although it's true for most videogames anyway...

    Any midrange CPU from intel or amd will do that paired with a 1060 or above.

    If that's in your budget it's a great choice.

    My system runs graphics at full bore with triple 27 inch monitors @ 144Hz, and other programs while streaming. See my sig for specs. Albeit I'm also water cooled so keep that in mind.
