I'm looking to get a new monitor and perhaps a new video card (going down a slippery slope again). I don't know if I should wait for 4k monitors to drop or wait for the next gen of video cards or just pull the trigger now. Budget (up to $800 for a monitor and up to $600 for a GPU).
I'm looking for either a 27" or a 32" that I will wall mount on a full motion long arm mount. I was thinking either 2650x1440 or 2650x1600. 120hz would be nice, but I haven't seen any out there at those resolutions. I thought of getting a new video card so I can run games (fps/rpg/strategy) at at least 50-60 fps on high settings, but haven't seen any that are in my budget and new tech.
So I found these monitors and have no clue on a new card:
1. ASUS PB278Q
2. ASUS PG278Q
3. BenQ BL3200PT
4. Samsung S32D850T
Games (FPS/RPG/Strategy): Diablo 3, Counter-Strike GO, Battlefield 4, Skyrim, Fallout NV, Civ 5, Dota 2, Hitman, Tomb Raider, Wargame,etc.
Current System:
- Intel i7-3770k
- Sapphire Vapor-X Radeon HD 7970 Ghz Edition 3GB 384-Bit GDDR5
- 180GB Intel SSD
- MSI 277A-G41
- 16GB G.Skill Ripjaws X Series
- Soundblaster X-Fi Titanium HD
- 32" Samsung 1920x1080p 120Hz TV
- 5.1 Onkyo Surround Sound System
