120hz vs better GPU

Last response: in Components

What people said is how great 120hz is and they could never live without it, although I can afford it I really also want to upgrade my GPU because at my minimum preferred settings on BF3 gives me 30~50FPS. I really want this PC to last me a while with great performance (against that I used to use xbox which I did not like as much) but I'm really stuck in a pickle here. Anyone have experience against these two of which one I should get?

Also I currently have a 6870 which I was gonna get a 7970 with a stock OC.

Gpu first, 120Hz is better because you get no screen tear in games. the monitor would be a waste as the current card your using cannot output a frame rate to match the monitor frequency. On a side note if you dont plan to use the monitor for 3D movies or a Games via 3d glasses its a bit of a waste. As the whole idea of a 120hz monitor is 60fps a second for each eye to create a 3d image.
