Hi everyone, I'm planing on making a new PC and buying a new monitor. This monitor is going to be 27 inches and at a resolution of 1920x1080. I was wondering if my PC will be able to handle it, here are the important specs:

GPU: Zotac GeForce GTS 450 810MHZ 1GB 3.6GHZ GDDR5 2xDVI HDMI DisplayPort PCI-E

Processor: AMD A8-5600K APU Quad Core Processor Socket FM2 3.6GHZ 4MB 100W

Will I need a smaller monitor? Or will my PC be able to handle that size; this is for gaming by the way, thanks.

The physical size of the monitor do not affect performance or hardware demand, it's the resolution that matters. 1920x1080 at 20" is the same image as 1920x1080 at 27", 30", 40", 50" and so on. And I think you mean a GTS 450? It will handle 1080p resolution just fine, but that depends on what you intend to do. It's plenty of power for general purposes, but not too great for gaming.

Yea, the GTS 450. Also thank you, just on the side note, how good is the GTS 450 for basic gaming like isometric games like Diablo 3 and other basic 3D games.
