Looking to upgrade my computer, suggestions?

Monitor: I have a 1080p 24" samsung TV/Monitor (it doubles as both) it has a 5ms response time and also a gaming mode setting. It's refresh rate is at 60hz and I was thinking of getting a gaming monitor of the same calibur but with 120hz refresh rate, would I see a better clarity in the picture and gameplay?

No, you the visuals of the game wouldn't look better with a 120hz refresh rate, but if you could pull a steady 120fps it would certainly feel smoother. Can't pull off 100+ FPS even in deserted areas with a 290x (I heard this game performs poorer on AMD cards though) but I cap it at 60 (60hz monitor).

If this really isn't a bragging thread, and you want the game to look nicer with decent FPS I'd recommend going for an ultrawide monitor + a GTX 980. No idea how FFXIV looks on an ultrawide monitor, but a friend has one and some games look spectacular on it.

I <3 My baby. What's nice is that it's seriously powerful and I can carry it around when I go on trips. Makes for a lovely desktop replacement which will be done paid in 2 years time.
