Best Gaming Monitor on the near Horizon?

Currently have a Asus ROG Swift PG279Q

I bought it from Microcenter and got the extended warranty.

I think it has about 6 months left and I can swap it out for purchase price credit of 7-800 dollars.

Looks like the only reasonable upgrade right now is the Alienware AW3418DW.

I currently have a gtx 1080 and play all types of games, Overwatch, RPGs, FPS.

Should I spend a couple hundred to upgrade to the AW or is something next gen out in the next six months or so?
