Hi guys. My current rig is as shown on the right >>>

Have a budget of $1500 hoping to transition to a 27" 144 Hz setup. I love gaming on PC to bits and would like to play games on high settings. Possible to squeeze in the best combo for gfx and monitor with this budget? What monitor & gfx should i get and Kindly advise any other parts that would need replacement. Greatly appreciated!:s12:

1440p resolution, 144Hz and GSync but LED and need to change to GTX980 or even a GTX970 :s22:

Acer Predator XB270HU has IPS, 1440p, 144Hz and G-sync but that means going to a GTX970 :s22:

I have to look at SLS price list and the one I linked lol

Really not easy. Either you go TN, 1080p with a R9 Fury (980Ti/Fury X with more budget) or go IPS, 1440p, G-sync with a GTX970 (which I really do not like)

Then again see TS playing what loh
