    Depends on the size of the 4k Monitor, I just bought a 40" and that's plenty big for me!

    I've always been a dual monitor sort of person. Mostly because with two screens you can have a fullscreen application open on one and still have a second screen for something else. Like having a live event going and having the corresponding twitter feed active on the other screen. Or if you're studying or working from home you can have reference materials on one screen while having a "working space" on the other.
     
    That said, I've never used a 4K monitor. But I suspect if I had a 4K monitor I'd still want to run a lot of applications full screen. Obviously the real solution would be to have two monitors with at least one of them running at 4K. Then you could have both

    Power Wagon or Raptor, no question about it. Locking diff in the Raptor is very useful if you ever come across a situation where you need it, traction control seems to work a bit better at getting you through things too.

    290 will offer double the frame buffer as well as negate any SLI issues

    I already just got a 650 Watt G2, I had a corsair CX that broke. I am SOL on that front. I guess I'll go with a 290 and wait for a RAM upgrade (I seem to not use that much, but it is a good idea to upgrade.)

    I would get the 290. My rule is always (Linus says it as well BTW) get the SINGLE most powerful card you can afford. Since the 690 is basically two cards you will have scaling issues, might have micro stutter etc. The 290 is just a raw performance beast and is great bang for the buck.

    Well, I say 8GB RAM with that $15 you'll save by getting the 690.

    Upgrade your RAM, 8GB is usually recommended and you can get 8GB for $35USD. Do that and a 690.
