Next upgrade option help

[Zildjian_joshua]

Hello, I currently have a system that has been working very good but I've decided to notch my gaming experience up and have been wondering what next upgrade option I should undertake. My current system is this:
2 x 4GB ram from Kingston
Intel core i5-3470
GTX 750TI 2GB OC edition from MSI
An h81m mobo from ASUS

Currently I'm playing at 1366x768 resolution and obviously, I could run games at high settings easily. I am about to buy a 1080p monitor. What option should i go for? I am not rich so I'd have to take things one at a time.

Option 1: upgrade GPU
Option 2: upgrade mobo + processor to newer gen

Or suggestions? Thanks!

I would definitely upgrade the gpu if you can afford it. I would go for r9 380x.

I'd say upgrade to 16GB of RAM first, then upgrade your GPU.

Is the r9 380x new? I live in the Philippines and I can't find it here. Anyway, is the performance increase significant?

Yes, 380x is new and the performance would be massively better than 750ti.
