Looking at Upgrade

Hey Guys,

I need some little help.

I've currently got a GTX 1070. My main monitor is free-sync Samsung 4K QLED monitor. 2nd monitor is a Samsung curved 2560x1080p monitor. I game on both depending on the games.

I'm wondering what Graphics card I should upgrade to. I currently have roughly £600 to spend... Although I would be very happy to spend much less.

Now, from having a look online I see 3 or 4 cards that seem ideal.

RX 5700XT pops out as a very nice card. (without the driver issues)
RTX 2070/Super looks nice, but RX5700XT looks on par and cheaper?
RTX 2080/Super looks nice but expensive.
GTX 1080 if possible?

Idea's???
 
None of those upgrades are worth it to me, unless you get a big chunk for that 1070. Graphics card market been a steaming pile of poop in the years since 1070 came out.
 
Cheers,

I think i'll wait. I mean GTX 1070 is still playing every game. I'm more of a AMD fanboy, but Nvidia have been blowing them out the water.
 
Wait till next gen, RTX 3070/3080 would be something to look into and dont forget AMD RDNA2 cards too. I am waiting too atm, got a R9 390 8GB.
