Merry xmas

I am in the process of purchasing a new monitor with my xmas credits.

I was inititialy looking at 27" 1440's but I stumbled across a review which threw ultrawides into the equation.

Now i know the popular response might be just get a 1440 32" ultrawide but there are 2 things stopping this....
1- cost (dont want to spend over £400 really)
2- My gpu (dont laugh its a radeon 7800 - will it handle what im looking at?)

Basically only play a mixture of wow,battlefield, Diablo 3

I dont need cutting edge 4k graphics, but I guess one question is would I notice a big difference between 1440 27" or the more immersive but only 1080 ultrawide.

Any help appreicated.

Thanks Nexus

Can you recommend a gpu that will support fresync on this monitor that wont break the bank?

I am using a Gigabyte Z77X-UD5H Intel Z77 (Socket 1155) DDR3 Motherboard

Thanks
