1440p/144Hz w/ GTX 1070: 5700 XT worthwhile upgrade?

[ThisIsCheez]

Currently using a 1440p/144Hz monitor paired with a GTX 1070. I tend to play everything max settings at 1440p so e-sport titles like Overwatch and Apex hit the 90+ mark while others AAA games I play hit the 60+ mark, sometimes with settings turned down a bit. I'm looking to upgrade so all my e-sport titles hit 144fps and AAA titles will run 60 - 100fps without having to sacrifice my quality settings. The 5700 XT is in my price range but I'm wondering if it's worth the upgrade over a GTX 1070, or maybe I should save up a bit more and go with a RTX 2070S? Anything over a 2070S is outside what I'm willing to pay. Looking for some input from someone with a similar setup.

 

Hardware it would be paired with:

 

* Ryzen 7 1700X

* 16gb 3200MHz Memory

* MSI X370 Gaming Pro Carbon

 

Any input is appreciated.

First of all, the rx 5700xt performs similar to a 2070super, only difference is rtx. Second, you might want to look at your PSU if it can handle the rx 5700 xt. Third, enjoy

If they preform within ~5% if each other I'd rather go with the 5700 XT. Cheaper and I have no need for ray tracing. I've got a 850W 80+ Gold PSU so I don't have any worries about that. It's overkill, but it was on sale for such a good deal I couldn't pass it up. Thanks, buddy!

You see, no big difference. Have fun and you're welcome.

You don't ''need'' to upgrade IMHO, the GTX 1070 is good enough for what you do. I would look into buying a CPU\Motherboard which can squeeze some extra FPS and be faster overall then the 1700. If you board doesnt support Zen 2 then you can try updgrading to a 2700. But even upgrading CPU is worthless.
