Oh noes!

I've come to the realization that I'm trying to get an Asus MG279Q or an Acer XF270HU. Those are both around the price of a brand new 1080! However, I'm currently stuck with a 1366x768 television... what do I choose?

And suffered many years under thine Satan-box. However, if thine be willing, as thy hast show yourself to be, thy can ascendeth into thy glorious fold of the glorious church. Go well, my brother, may your temps be low and your frames high. ~ MrDynamicMan

Get a new display first. You can also get a cheaper display + a cheaper graphics card instead of getting one and not the other.

Don't bother with a 1080 if you're running some tiny display like that - it would be a waste.

If you can read this you're using the wrong theme.  You can change it at the bottom.

I realize a high-end card like a 1080 would be silly on a resolution that low, but I could be patient and wait to get a display for it afterwards. My issue is that I'm using an AMD card, so if I get a Freesync display, I won't be able to use G-sync later...
