Building a new pc

Cool. A final tip then since you have a good graphics card now.. If you only have a 60hz monitor you will be amazed if you go to a 144hz monitor.
For example a cheap 24' IPS panel 144hz 1080p monitor: AOC 24G2U

If you have more money you could go from 1080p to 1440p, but it's perhaps better to game in 1080p with maximum settings, with your graphic card you can even render your games in 1440p downscaled you your 1080p monitor using ''Supersampling''
I have a 144hz 27' 1440p monitor and my experience is that it feels like 24' could even be an advantage so that your focus-area isn't too big while serious gaming. 144hz is a sweetspot right now. 1440p is very good compared to 1080p but the monitor will cost more and your PC has to be good enough to make use of it. I would not go from a 1440p monitor to a 1080p monitor, but if you already have 1080p you come a long way with a new gfx card and higher refresh rate.
General tips while I'm at it...

Monitors with GSync would be hella sexy for my setup. I plan on streaming more over at twitch.tv/artcrusader, so having good equipment is important. :) My current 2 screens are kinda old, so it's definitely time

Note that if using 2 monitors with different Hz you gonna have some issues. It's been improved recently but still can be experienced. You can Google more about it.

Thanks for the notice. If I get new monitors, I'll buy 2 of the same kind

Please correct me if I'm wrong. G-sync will get you a smooth image but adds respons time. It can be a nice way to remove screen tearing and a smoother image can make it more easy to guess where enemies are going anyway. But if you want as responsive and delay free gameplay as possible you just set your monitor to as many Hz as possible (144 for example) and don't use g-sync. Right?
