Hey all, I'm in the market for a new monitor and GPU, looking to spend no more than £400.
My currently monitor is nothing special a 22" Samsung. The main games I tend to play a lot of are World of Warcraft and Football Manager so I would like something that is able to play 1920 x 1080, I'm used to 1440 x 900, so would like to have more real estate and hopefully aim for playing Warcraft and somewhere close to Ultra settings if possible.
My current spec is:
CPU Intel Pentium G3258 RAM 8.00GB Dual-Channel DDR3 Motherboard ASRock Z97 Anniversary Graphics 1024MB ATI AMD Radeon HD 5700 Series Storage 465GB Western Digital WDC
What the exact model of your psu tho? It might not be up for running a new gpu. We also need to know the case you got to be sure the new gpu fits inside.
From what i see the Corsair 200R is not worth it, price wise, it costs 50-55 quid atm. With a few more you get Phanteks Enthoo Pro M or NZXT S340, both being better than the corsair.
As far as the monitor go, the Asus is a TN panel not an IPS like the one i linked. I don't look at TN panels for few years now, there is no reason.
