So after I get my new HDD and monitor after christmas and black friday i'm at a crossroads. Do a whole new build or just do a SUPER upgrade on my graphics card. 

 

Heres the build: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/cWjcwP I will reuse my ram

 

or ill upgrade my 750ti to a r9 nano

 

My current build also includes an i5 4460, 12gb ddr3, random dell motherboard I also have a 450w psu so I may have t upgrade that too.

 

The reason I would go with the nano is that my case would not support any longer cards.

 

What do you think?

what monitor, because tbh that build looks fine (if anything I'd just shove another 390 in there and call it a day)

Derp.

I think the new build may actually be worth it (or get like 80% new) so maybe move your 4460 across to allow you to throw a really beefy GPU or more storage options.

ya Ive been kinda leaning towards a new build because Ive never built a full pc before, tbh I would rather go for the i7 4790 rather than carrying over the 4460
