Look at the benchmarks. 2060 of course is better... But how much are both of these GPUs?

[HarveyBustin12]

GTX 1070 is $225 RTX 2060 $297

If the 2060 is brand new I'd go for that. There is a risk to buying used cards, and that 1070 is probably almost out of warranty.

That's up to you. I personally would go for the 2060.

 

But if you're with a 60hz monitor and only are playing fortnite, then get the cheaper one. Both of these are going to produce 120+ fps at 1080p at max settings.

 

@SpookyCitrus has a valid point as well. If the 1070 is used, another reason to go for the 2060.

Yeah 60h, but dosen't the rtx 2060 have better encoding?
