If you're dissatisfied with your performance and framerate in games, yes. If you are not, then don't bother and keep the 970 and upgrade to the 1170 or something when it comes out.

Not sure if you "should" upgrade, but if you really want to, either would work. But I would suggest the 1070 for the longer lifespan. Also, since that card is way overkill for 1080p gaming, you can use DSR to crank the resolution & still keep the frame rates.

1070 won't dsr too 1440 at 144hz it will just do 60 in most

If you plan to get high FPS (100+) you'd better have a good CPU. i5 OC as minimum. Open world games will put any CPU to it's knees above 100FPS.

144 hz is pretty much dead right now, IMO.

 

GPU's are bottlenecked by the CPU at that high of frame rates - and it has more to do with game engines than it does with true horsepower of CPU's. 

 

Best bet is to get a g-sync monitor and play at any of the intervals leading up to 100, or 100, hz.
