If you play games at 60+ fps, with a 144Hz monitor, you can save up for a GTX 980 Ti and it will probably be worth the money. However if you don't play at higher framerates than 60fps, and own a 60Hz monitor, just get the GTX 1060. It's good enough to play at high/ultra settings most of the time if you have the right setup.
