Which i5? Also any monitor you get for that price wont be able to run OW. Maybe at 144Hz but for sure not on ultra specially on that gpu. How bout sell the GPU, get a 1060 + 144Hz 1080 monitor.

You can pick up a 27" overclockable 1440p monitor for less than that. Qnix and Crossover are the better known brands and can overclock to around 100 - 120Hz. Your CPU is also an issue and your GPU may only be able to deliver higher FPS at 1080p.
