It depends on which graphics card you're getting and also what games you play.

Probably a 1070 and I play overwatch fortnite rainbow six black ops 4 and a few other games

144hz monitor will make your Windows and game experience smoother. But you need sufficient GPU so you can push higher than 60fps in games. Upgrade to 16GB of RAM, then monitor then GPU.

Ok so I'll get an extra 8 gigs then a 144hz then gpu next year
