Niether...There's no need for you to upgrade. Maybe get a better monitor or something.

Ryzen 5 1600 @ 3.9 Ghz  | Gigabyte AB350M Gaming 3 |  PaliT GTX 1050Ti  |  8gb Kingston HyperX Fury @ 2933 Mhz  |  Corsair CX550m  |  1 TB WD Blue HDD


Inside some old case I found lying around.

neither. Even the 2080 struggle to beat the 1080ti all the time, not to mention the 2070. Just get a used 1080ti, and see what's left for the CPU.

What monitor resolution/refresh rate?
 

the 20 series a joke, probably skip it until prices are way lower

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...
 

Spoiler

 

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

id honestly get a used 1080ti for around 450-500$ then get a new CPU (id say 7700k)

Probably a waste to stay on that platform, if only the 8700K were an option for Z170/Z270, can pick up a Ryzen 6 core and a motherboard for the price of a 7700K

My monitor is the Dell U2410 so I'm not sure if it would be worthy to upgrade or not.

I would highly suggest getting a 1080p 144Hz monitor instead :)

EDIT: instead of a CPU or GPU upgrade

Dell U2410

buy a 1080p 144hz display

This one has a VA panel and should be solid at $189, G-sync is a waste of money wouldn't bother worrying about it.

Wait to upgrade your GPU until GTX 1070tis/1080s are $300, and/or when the Vega 7nm refresh is out, or there will be a polaris refresh soonish that may have 1070 performance, but mostly just gets free-sync unlocked on your display, only worth it if the 12nm polaris is cheap

 

and wait to upgrade your CPU for Ryzen 3000 early next year to see how it compares

Guys he plays Rainbow Six and CSGO ,,, a 760 like mine is good enough for CS GO .......Its not like hes playing battlefield 1 or COD.  His CPU is just fine for those games.  His video card is also fine for those games.  You don't need a upgrade man.  I agree with the gurus above,, grab a 144hz monitor instead and enjoy CSGO at 144fps sustained.

 

WTF does he need a 1080 for ? lol

 

Grab the monitor and enjoy non motion blur and smooth smooth game play.
