As the title states

so my computer:

i7 3770(non k) With 212x cooler
8gb 4x2 HyperX 1600mhz
250GB Samsung evo 850
1TB HDD samsung
Gigabyte G1 1070
Asus P8p67-M motherboard

I'll be upgrading my 1080p screen next year,for now i'd like advice on what to upgrade or what to swap out for something that does works better than the current.

I wouldn't really do anything, if you're really itching to spend money you can look for a secondhand i7-K CPU and overclock, upgrade to 16GB RAM or buy another bigger SSD.

Yep.

Get a 1080p 144hz monitor now and enjoy your 1070 more if you've got some cash that you must spend :). Or get a bigger SSD and put the games \ apps that are not on your current SSD on it.
 
A i7 3770K just went on sale on Carbonite for R1700, better hurry if you want it.
 
I concur, I wouldn't really do much but buy ram.
If you are itching, then trade your system with GTX Gaming for a more updated system and only then should you consider a K Version (I don't think that it would add much to your life right now, with your current setup).

If you have money to spend and, if you are into FPS, then get what NeoProd suggested.
If you are not into FPS or any fast paced games then a Dell U2515H is the way to go.
