I'd upgrade that GPU too.

You could also get an ssd from your budget as you've got $250 left from the monitor that Sanctyy suggested. Or upgrade the GPU.

not sure why your getting a 144hz monitor when a 660 won't push more than 60 Frames in demanding games.

You'd be better off getting a nicer IPS display which actually makes staring at a monitor not a bad experience.
