What is wrong with that monitor? It's a 1080p with 5ms response time. Don't know about the hertz, but I would assume 30 or 60 coming from Samsung. However, it is quite old. Before you upgrade to a new monitor, what type of computer do you have? Your components may not be able to handle new games.

How cool are you trying to get it? And I honestly think you monitor is great. However, it is about 6 or 7 years old. You could try upgrading some parts, maybe a new GPU for now, because the 780 is two generations old, and may not give you the quality you desire.

ok thanks ill hold off on the monitor...gpu is perfect for now plays everything i want on ultra 60fps mainly because its overclcoked to 1400mhz but my watercooler im always afraid will leak or fail the reviews are terrible for it so i was thinking aboyt getter a corsair one or thermaltake btw the watercooler was a gift else i wouldve never got it lol

Well if it is still kicking then take that money for a new water cooler. I personally enjoy air cooling. You don't have to worry about leakage or anything like that. Plus it doesn't take up that much space...but that's just me.
