What to buy? graphics card prices screw me good :/

Hey guys,

first time i use this forum so pardon me if i placed this in the wrong section!
I realy need a new graphics card for gameing, still rocking a gtx 770 2gb atm^^
I realy need your input on what to buy, the current price´s of graphic cards are realy shitty here in germany.

I have a budget of about 400-450€ to spend and my original plan was to buy a used 1080ti on the german version of craigslist. sadly the people over here lost their mind, i mean they want 700-800€ for a used 1080ti. like wtf??

so i guess i will have to get a new card. 
i realy hate the RTX line up and dont care at all about raytraceing (also they start at 500€). so i did some research and have found 2 options:

GTX 1070 @460€


https://www.caseking.de/gigabyte-geforce-gtx-1070-ti-gaming-8g-8192-mb-gddr5-gcgb-218.html
GTX 1070 ti @480€ (might as well spend the 20 bucks extra?)

 

BUT i cant lose the feeling that i overpay a lot on these. i mean they are kind of old tech now and rtx is just out and the 10 serries stock is kinda low. also i realy dont want to buy a gtx 1060, duno why realy just feels wrong :D. is it just a shitty time to buy new graphic cards? or am i to picky?
what do you think? any suggestions are greatly appreciated! 
Thanks in advance and really sorry for the bad english and grammar,
Cheers!

Dude wtf?! Here in Ireland you can get used 1080 for 400-450 euros. Used 1080ti is about 600-700 euros. And even that is considered expensive. You should've monitored online markets during black Friday sales. I saw some good deals on 10.series GPUs...

@DrMacintosh
well i also thought about that (that hbm2 makes me want it even more! :P ). a decent vega 56 is about 450-500€ here.

also i only got a 500w bequiet power supply (Straight Power 10) so i am not sure if i can even go with amd?

rest of my system is I7 4700, 16gb ram, 1HDD&1SSD. would love to buy amd to support them! but for 450 bucks its not locking too be a thing

@PopsicleHustler

so what are your thoughts on the 1070 and 1070ti? worth the buy for that amount of money? to bad black friday is over :/ will keep that in mind for the next time
you wouldn´t belive the shit people try to pull here.... on the german version of craigslist i saw a gtx 770 listed for 100€ and more, same sh*t with 960. they are out of their mind really

Check UK and DE Amazon's, they could have a good deal.
