Furthermore i need advice which monitor i should get. I am not willing to spend more than 200€ but i want to get a decent monitor with 1080p and preferably 27". At the moment im deciding between the Benq gl2450e which is only 24" and doesnt have HDMI and the LG Electronics 27MP35HQ-B which is 27" and has an IPS Panel but i dont know if it is good because it is so cheap for 27" and an IPS Panel.

I'd go for a 780 Ti graphics card if I were you. But that's just a personal preference.

The majority of those games have already been released, so I don't know what you're on about regarding their release. Just saying they have been released already.

Don't use Windows 8 for gaming. It's not compatible with some games and some programms. I recommend you to get Windows 7.
