Monitor and Graphics Card Suggestions

[averagebilly]

I have $900 to upgrade my system. I would like a monitor that is at least 1440p, preferably 75+Hz refresh rate with decent colour accuracy. The graphics card just needs to be able to keep up with the monitor in most games at high settings. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Here are my current specs:

Sorry that I didn't specify, but I have $900 Canadian. A little over budget would be fine, as I have some extra RAM that I'm selling.

I probably should've picked that up from your image and location ^^.

The 5700XT should be able to handle 1440p at 75fps.

 

EDIT:

wrong GPU

Thank you. I won't be getting that exact card because it doesn't go with my build, but the monitor I will. Thanks for helping me out.

Just don't get the Asus TUF 5700xt, and you should probably avoid the MSI evoke too. I'd look for some roundup's, Gamers nexus has some pretty good videos where they compare 5700xt's and some of them are horrendously bad in terms of cooling.

I ended up getting the Asus ROG because it went with my build the best even though it's insane power draw produces too much heat. Thanks again for the help.
