Hi,
I have a gaming pc at the moment which handles next gen games at about 30-45 fps with no AA and it sometimes drops down. My PC specs are:
GTX 750 ti FTW
AMD FX 6300 (overclocked to 4.3ghz)
8gb of ram
600 watt power supply
I was thinking of upgrading because my parents are looking to get a new pc for office use, I could give them my parts (as they dont want to spend that much) and get a much better rig. I play a lot of next gen games like: Dying Light, GTA 5, Shadow of Mordor, Far Cry 4. My questions are:
Is it worth spending more money to upgrade to 1440p and better framerates. (Does it look a lot better?)
What Graphics card/CPU and monitor is best for it?
Wait until 4k if more affordable?
My PC is less than 1 year old so everything works okay, Thanks!!

Your 750Ti will not handle 1440p. It is not worth it to upgrade for you.

You would need at least GTX 970/R9 290/290x/GTX 980 to run well on 1440.

Does 1440 look better - definitely, but it is rather expensive at the current time.
