Posted January 22, 2016 Hey everyone. First off I hope this is in the right section, If not would a Mod please redirect it. So I have a question. I was wondering if I should upgrade my GPU (MSI r9 280x) to a r9 390 or should I plan on getting a 1440p Monitor? I currently game on a 1080p display, and I had asked about with my current build if I could game at 1440p with my current card some said yes, just with obvious tweaks and others said upgrade to a 390. So I was wondering what I should upgrade first. Obviously I'm not gonna go out and buy the monitor or GPU right away. It just gives me a goal to work towards. Thanks for reading guys.

Posted January 22, 2016 id go with the GPU upgrade first so it will be easier to run 1440p when you do upgrade to it. also, i think you will get more out of a new GPU vs a monitor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted January 22, 2016 Author Any specific reason to upgrade to 1440p? Just to game at higher resolutions. Maybe not a good enough reason just yet haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted January 22, 2016 Don't think your current gpu could handle 1440p well so gpu first.
