$300 to upgrade

My gaming setup in my living room, i have a crappy desk with my PC and also my ps3 connected up with my tv, which is a 40", and i use a bench as my chair. I have $300 to spend, on either getting a second desk for my room and a decent monitor, or i could spend it on a second gpu for a crossfire config and some games. The reason i would like to get a new desk and not just use the one i have now, is because the ps3 and tv are for the family, and i cant just take them for myself, btw i'm 15. i would also like my setup in my room with an actual monitor, just for more privacy and control. But on the other hand i could upgrade my PC to crossfire for a better gaming experience.
