My PC specs are:
- ASUS GTX 560 TI
- ASUS M4A88T-M/USB3 motherboard
- 8 GB RAM
- 600W power supply
- AMD Phenom II X2 Black 560 CPU
- 20" BENQ monitor

I'm thinking about buying another monitor to have a dual monitor setup. One monitor will be for gaming and the other will be for surfing the internet and stuff like that. I've heard that I should upgrade my CPU but I don't know which one is the best for the money. Do I need more RAM, better power supply, motherboard, CPU? I really don't know. Do I need to get another GTX 560 TI or even a better graphics card? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Recommendations would be great as well. Thanks.
 
my set up is an nvidia 550ti and ib 3540 cpu one monitor that the main one that i game on is on the 550ti the one for webbing or non 3d stuff is on the intel chipset that built into the cpu. you can do two with the 550/560ti but your gaming frame rate will go down the more the gpu has to do on the other monitor. with the built in gpu your just using a small part of the system ram for the other screen and some cpu cycles.
