I've been gaming for years at 1920*1080 60fps. My monitor is 1080p 60Hz. If I were to build a new pc and move to a higher resolution and fps, would I also need to upgrade my monitor?

If my monitor is only refreshing 60 times a second does that mean that anything above 60fps is a bit redundant, as the monitor won't be able to keep up for me to feel the benefit? Or does it not work like that?
 
Yes and Yes, without getting too technical

1920 x 1080 is the maximum resolution your monitor will display and 60Hz is the maximum refresh rate.
