I have a msi 970 mobo with a amd fx 8350 cpu and a msi r9 390 gpu. I am looking for a new monitor as im running a 20 inch ips hp 2011xi. What can my setup handle? im not looking top end or anything just need to know if i should go with a 24 or 27 inch 1080 or a 1440 ? budget of 275 and sticking with ips. (for The division and photography.)

The r9-390 cannot run a new game at 1440 at 60 fps max settings. so saying "No reason an R9-390 can't run 2560x1440, kind of designed for it, and then some." is very misleading. sure it can "run" it but not at 60 fps max settings.
