The 4070 would be alright if it was priced where the 4060 Ti is. It's not a terrible card - just way too expensive (and the 4070 Ti even moreso). A 6800 XT is a decent jump from a 2070 (~85% faster), but obviously a 7900 XT is faster still (30% or so over the 6800 XT). Depends on what you play, what your performance expectations are and how good a deal you can get really. I'd look at some actual benchmark figures for the games you care about above anything else.

The good thing with a 4070 is the power consumption, but it's not really ideal if you're thinking of 4K. Personally, I'd get the 7900 XT if you can afford it, since the extra grunt, newer architecture and 4GB of VRAM (vs 6800 XT) will likely prove itself over time.
