Monitor spoil first then change. Get bigger, greater ones as you save up during the interim period.

Only for windows 8 or just any oem windows in general. I have an existing oem win 7 and i heard stories abt having to call ms sg to reset the activation code for every fresh install

Not sure.For window 8.1 OEM, the computer can use it as per normal but it will keep popping up a notification telling you to key in a new CD key.

should come in ard within your budget, not too sure about the exact figures. will be capable of the games you're playing, maybe med-high settings for triple A titles. you can opt for the new r9 380x if you'd like. gtx960 comes in ard the same price, but quite a few benchmarks shows 380>960.
