i use a 144 hz monitor but is gtx 750 good enough or should i upgrade to something better was thinking of getting a r9 280

You should upgrade your GPU and R9 280 shoud serve well. Did you take into consideration R9 290 as GTX 970 is way out of the price range?

I don’t recommend upgrading your graphics card unless the replacement card is at least three tiers higher. Otherwise, the upgrade is somewhat parallel, and you may not even notice any worthwhile difference in performance.

So..... to jump 3 tiers above e 750 , you'd need at least a GTX 660 Ti, GTX 760, HD 7870, R9 270, 270X

4 tiers u p.... GTX 580, GTX 670, HD 5970, 7870 LE (XT), 7950, 280, 285

5 tiers up .... GTX 590, 680, 770, HD 6990, 7970 GHz Ed, R9 280X

6 tiers up ..... GTX 780, 970, Titan R9 290, 290X

Keep in mind that is if using at stock speeds "outta the box" ..... if OC'ing you get more of an OC bump outta the nvidia 7xx / 9xx cards than on the AMD R9 series....older generations there's not much of a difference.

Also pay attention to 3D capabilities, as well as ability to use lightboost and G-Sync
