I'm stuck on what to upgrade.

I currently have an i7 920 @ 3.5ghz and have been looking at upgrading to a 6700k or should I invest in replacing my r9 280x with a evga 980 Ti sc.

At the moment the games I play are CS:GO and LoL. Will most likely be playing the Legion WoW expansion too, not sure how gpu intensive that would be though.

I also plan on switching to a 1440p monitor sometime next year. Not sure about 1440p 60hz or 1440 144hz but i'm not worried about that atm.
 
Wouldn't I have problems running a 3440x1440p wide screen with a R9 280x? That sounds like it will kill my FPS.

I know what you mean having a wide resolution playing league, I tried eyefinity with my monitor and tv although it was really weird due to different screen size you could see so much more! Definitely something i'd look into for a future upgrade.
 
I've been reading some random information and have found out Pascal maybe released early/mid 2016. If that is so would it be wise to invest in a 980 Ti right now?

The prices will drop for 980 and Pascal will be around £600~ area, right?

With around £800 budget what would be the best option for me now? (Don't really want to spend £800 on a monitor though)

CPU/GPU/Monitor? (My current monitor is some random £100-150 Samsung 1080p S24A350H)
