I ask in the last status update because I have a hard time justifying putting another thousand+ in my PC that already is over $1,000

Which I have a hard time realizing that just because I bought parts over a period of time and not all at once

But I would appreciate a little more GPU power and a better screen, I mean a 39" 1080p tv is great for stuff like gimp and stuff at a regular tv distance of at least a few feet but a proper monitor at a higher resolution would be great.

So everything that isn't purchased is what I want to get, I want to upgrade my DVD drive to a blu-ray drive because I really should've gotten a Bluray drive for the price I paid for my drive

I mean I kinda wanna just stick with 1080p but like a 1440p 144Hz Freesync monitor is incredibly tempting and I hope by the time I had this money, Navi would be out or there'd be more Vega 56's on the market.
