You won't be maxing any current AAA games at 2560*1080 with that GPU

thats why i said i'm looking to purchase a new one

 

You said you're getting a monitor. A 970 or a 290/x would do it comfortably.

a 290x would do better because more memory and more bandwith

A 290x and a 970 both have 4GB of vram. Nvidia's bus width is lower, but they have tricks to make it take much better use of the bus. They are about the same in both price and performance.

 

@EntAsia, a 290x will run hotter and take more power though, so take that into account.

I also second the R9 290X for this choice. A sapphire R9 290X Tri-X or Vapor-X card would be fantastic.

I have finally moved to a desktop. Also my guides are outdated as hell.
