That will make a pretty big difference, why have a great GPU with a crappy monitor?

Go ahead and get the 1080p monitor, the upgrade will take some time to get used to, but will be worth it.

Because I had some internal thoughts said " it won't be hard to save up some money after buying the PC for a monitor "  :(

Yes. Upgrade right now. 1366x768 is awful. Even 1080p is a bit meh at 24".
