Hey guys, i bought a order 3 years ago and got the components to build a tower from overclockers mainly to play general pc games and WoW, spec was as follows

Asus Rampage 2 Extreme
Intel Core i7 920 2.66 (was running at 4.2 but new house ambient temps are high so have set back to 2.66)
BFG GTX 285 OCX 1024MB
Kingston HyperX 6GB 12800C8 1600mz tri channel Ram
Tagan Piperock TG900-BZ 900W Modular PSU
Antec 1200 Case
Viewsonic 24inch HD LCD

I used to play WoW up untill about a year ago i stopped all gaming.

Anyway... i made the mistake of taking apart my Logitech G19 and after removing the keys and letting them soak i used a Detol wet wipe and cleaned the base of the keyboard, i thought everything was fine till the next day, water damage... :(

So needed to buy a new one ready to play Guild wars 2, and after looking on the site got the bug to buy some other bits too ;)

So, im looking at buying a new Logitech G19, and thought i might as well get a new GFX card too, but have no idea what, which, if its going to be ok on my current system etc

Im also looking at buying a new screen also but not sure what, i was looking at getting this>

But then was wondering if its worth getting a higher res screen, is it worth it? i will be playing Guild Wars 2 and a card based on any advice. This was my other choice of monitor is higher res screen will be even better for gaming>

I was looking at spending about £350-£475 on the gfx card, i do prefere Nvidia.

Thank you for your time and replies
