What to get now?...

[ojrules]

I've got a

512mb 4850
e2180 @ 2.9ghz

19" monitor @ 1280x1024
samsung syncmaster 193v


I've got about £130ish to spend, and i'm torn between getting a logitech g25 (£125), a logitech driving force gt (£60) .. , a blu ray drive, or a new monitor, or both ...

- Also, how much do you recon the monitor could go for?.. - I would sell it if i got a new one, no dead pixels, very good condition, ( and yes ive already asked on MM with no answers) ....

- If i could get £40-£50 for it i woul dsell it, but if we're talking 20ish then no..

depends on age and things many i expect youcan get 40-50 for it if you want hardest thing is to actually sell it is form what i have found there is a lot on the market atm best thing to do is dual monitor it up once you go dual monitor you never go back

dual monitor in what sense.. mixed monitors, or find one exactly the same?.. it seem sa bit silly to me really, especially for gaming, where the edge of the screen is directly in your field of view

you dont have it so it is stretched you have it on a main monitor i personally think that is best but i got a 19 and a 24 and it that works fine for me they dont have to eb exactly the same
it also a lot better for working ebing able to see 2 things full screen

The thing about getting a bigger monitor is it leads to using higher ressoultions and so is more demanding on your GPU so make sure you.ve got enough money a new card if ur up sizeing

Out of all the things you have said the monitor is the most tempting one, You would not have a problem with a higher resulotion with a 4850. I am running 2*20" monitors using a 4850 at the max resulotion of 1600*1200.
