Hello.
I am looking to upgrade my rig, but at the moment I can only afford to start out with one purchase. I am planning to buy a 1440p 27" monitor, and since this will require more power than my current gfx card has to offer I am looking for an upgrade in said segment as well.
So, my question is if it would be wiser to upgrade the graphics card or the monitor first? I am currently sitting on a 6950 2gb, so it is not all that bad, but still not enough to power the games at max graphics (at least not in 1440p).
Also, as a minor side question I am still struggling on settling for a card. Right now a sapphire 7970 dual-x is the top contender, but if you have any other suggestions I would like to hear them as well.
