GPU Help

carlos9759

so i want to play games at full 1080p 60fps with just one monitor, but maybe in the near future, i want to have 2 monitors, 1 for normal gaming and the other for checking facebook, doing homework etc yada yada..

 

which GPU would you guys recommend? im gonna basically stay at 1080p until i see 4k evolve more..

 

my budget would be around 250ish???...

that's almost $300

Worth it though.

I would wait for the near future. GPU prices drop pretty fast compared to other parts
