I currently have a Gigabyte GTX 1050 Ti Windforce OC 4GB GDDR5 128-bit PCI-E Graphic Card (GV-N105TWF2OC-4GD) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01M6Y671T/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_1fH3Ab6ZRD8PR and I was wondering if it was worth upgrading to a 980 founders edition I could buy from my buddy.

definitely worth it if you got the PSU to run it.

main system build --> i7-7700K (at 5.0 ghz), MSI Z270 SLI Motherboard, corsair vengeance lpx 8gb ddr4 2666mhz,  costume liquid cooling loop with 360 mm radiator on CPU, GTX 1080 gigabyte windforce OC, 1TB WD drive, 128 gb samsung nvme m.2, EVGA 850 watt semi modular power supply, CM storm stryker case (ya not ideal for costume loop), VIOTEK GN34C 34 inch curved monitor <----

Yes, it is MUCH more powerful.  You WILL need PCI power to get it to run.
