I'd like to buy a 1440 monitor but I do not know how to upgrade my system to accommodate the larger screen size. I'd like to be able to play games like Cyberpunk and some 2021 PC games on as high of a graphics setting as possible.
Do I need a new GPU? CPU? Motherboard and CPU and GPU? Thanks for any advice.
My budget is around $1,000 for the GPU, CPU, and any PC upgrades. I have other money for the monitor.
