Oh man, I would go with a 144hz monitor, but I'd need a new GPU to take advantage of it, might get a 1070 as a Christmas present to myself this year though. :)

the thing about getting a new GPU is AMD's 490, and Vega / Zen. if you don't care about either of those things then a 1070 is an opportune choice.

Already have 144Hz monitor. Got cans better than the M50X. 1070 is not of interest to me. 

 

Still, third 144Hz monitor would be great though....

I would get the headphones. Headphones will basically never be obsolete.

I use Beyerdynamic T51s regularly. The M50x is a really good set of headphones (I own a pair myself) but not really the be all end all of headphones that everyone says they are.
