Sorry for the post guys as i imagine yous are all sick of lol but im toying with a upgrade

I have a 1070 and im looking to potentially upgrade to a 2070s.
Will this be a decent upgrade ?

Im after cod which currently bundles with the rtx cards so you could say knocks £40 off the card, if i sell my 1070 for £150-£200 then its looking at a potential upgrade for £240.

would it be a decent upgrade for that price ?

I game at 1440p as 4k isnt viable with a 1070, i like to game at 60 fps with settings as high as possible

or should i wait for the 3xxx cards ?

Should have mentioned i game on a 4k oled tv so no monitor

sorry guys should have added. i have an itx machine and its in my living room connected to a 4k oled TV so no monitor or gsync
 
Im toying with waiting but you could just always keep waiting. will a 3070 have a 2080ti performance next year who knows and how much is it likely to cost £600 ??
 
Its just that the 20 series is overpriced and underwhelming performance wise, + near eol thats why many say to wait. Will be useless at raytracing next year too when more demanding tracing games are released and the next cards have 2-3x the rtx performance.
2070 is what inbetween 1080 and 1080ti? so its not a huge upgrade from a 1070.

if you still have the cpu in your sig (4690k) you'd be better off doing a platform upgrade now and a gpu upgrade next year.

Yea havnt updated my sig

I now have a ryzen 3700x

I think im gonna hang fire especially since the cards are generally a year old now. Might aswell wait a few month and see what next year brings with better rtx support and hopefully better performance at a better price. Im not really in a hurry but once i get the itch to upgrade its hard to scratch it without updating ha
