Looking for advice on upgrading

I'm looking at upgrading my graphics card AND monitor in the next month or so. I'm looking at a higher end setup and in total am willing to pay up to $800 combined for the two. For the monitor I want at a minimum 1440p resolution (of course the more the better though). As far as AMD vs Nvidia I have no preference. (This is a gaming build btw)

Here are my specs:
PSU: Corsair CX600
RAM: Corsair Vengance Pro 16gb (2x8Gb) 2400MHz
CPU: AMD fx-8320
MOBO: Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3
GPU: Sapphire Radeon HD 7970 3Gb
Case: Corsair SPEC-01
Monitor: ASUS VS24AH-P

 

What are your thoughts?

 Just because you don't care, doesn't mean other others don't. Don't be a self-centered asshole. -Thank You a PSA from the people who do not say random shit on the internet.
