So I'm hovering on a 16GB 5080, question is, is it a worthwhile man-maths-wise upgrade after taking into account selling my 12GB 4070Ti?

Rig in sig, using PC for gaming, photo & video editing...

I'd consider it only if: you're struggling to get playable FPS in the games/at the res you play (likely to be 4K), or it is a very cheap upgrade. TPU's GPU database has it as 46% faster, so whatever that's worth to you.
 
Depending on the model of the 4070ti (12gb), you'd get between £300-370 or so even if selling directly to CeX.

You'd possibly get more selling via other methods (ebay etc), not sure about the OCUK MM.

The cheapest 5080 I can see on OCUK is £1000, so you'd be spending in the region of £500-600 after getting rid of your 4070ti for another 4gb of VRAM and a roughly 30-40% performance uplift depending on resolution.

Personally, I'd be tempted to source a 4080S or 4090 via the MM instead assuming you have access. Someone actually sold a 4080 Super on there not so long ago for a little under £600, so there are deals to be had.
