Help deciding on upgrade

[Dimetime35c]

Okay I'm totally stuck on this right now. I'm getting a pretty big tax return and I don't know what I should do with it. I need a new monitor as I game on a tv right now. The one I want is the 35 inch acer predator 144hz. I also see that Nvidia is rumored to be releasing the pascal line of gpus this june. I want the new pascal gpu and the price I've seen rumored is 600$ for the "basic" and 900$ for the main flagship. I could buy the top tier one but the monitor I want is 1099$ I'm so torn as to what to do. Any input will help!

How good is the TV and what GPU do you currently have?

980ti and it's a 1080p 60hz tv.

Right, so a GPU upgrade isn't exactly desperately needed? If the 780Ti to 980 is anything to go by, the jump between the 980Ti and 1080 (I'll use that name in place of anything more concrete) won't be huge. It's highly unlikely we'll see a direct 980Ti replacement when Pascal first launches. 

 

What TV is it? Some are fine for gaming, other are awful. Have a look for some reviews of its gaming performance. Assuming your TV isn't great, I'd get the monitor. If your TV is okay...I'd wait for Pascal and Polaris and be in a more informed position before I parted with any money.
