My system specs are:
Intel Core i5 CPU 750 @ 2.67GHz
4.29GB Memory
ATi Radeon HD 4800 Series 2.94 GB Memory
128GB SSD
3TB HDD
Samsung Syncmaster 226BW Monitor
When i upgrade my graphics card i will be looking to spend around $400-$500 (looking at R9 270, HD 7850 or if i can push the budget an HD 7950)
Monitor wise i would also be looking around that $400-$500 mark not sure whether it is worth getting a 27" over a 24" or not so open to either. Currently have been looking at ASUS VN247H, ASUS VE278Q or Samsung LS24C45KBWV/XY.
I note that a lot of monitors these days don't have DVI so if i were to upgrade my monitor first i may be held back by this as my HD 4850 does not have an HDMI out.
Any other suggestions for graphics cards and monitors are greatly appreciated along with advice on which to upgrade first.
Sorry if this is in the wrong place.
Cheers,
