Answer preview

My first consideration for buying a video system and monitor will be the size of the screen and the ability of the video card. I should get the best offer for the best monitor and video card that will cost me $500 utmost. The bigger the screen, the better, it should accommodate high resolutions and have a fancy look.

For the video Card, I want a video card that is compatible with my processor. My choice is EVGA GeForce GTX 1060 GAMING that costs $239.99. It has free Exclusive Precision XOC to Overclock 1060 GPU. This software will allow me to fine tune your NVIDIA graphics card, maximizing cooling and performance.
