Is there anything you realistically feel the need to upgrade? Maybe a 120/144Hz monitor, but even still, would it be useful for your games?

Also, Eltorro64 GMod pfp, I like it.

I play TF2, Doom Eternal, Minecraft with shaders for the main time, I have a lot of other games that I rarely play.

Eh, I could see you getting some mileage out of a higher refresh rate monitor, then. 

If you also needed any more storage, that wouldn't be a bad idea, too.

If you have to ask what to upgrade, than there is no need to upgrade ;)

75Hz is fine. I know everyone wants 23293Hz Displays, but if you run 60-75 with freesync, I´d rather safe the Money when i real Upgrade is needed.
