Gaming rig upgrade - worth it?

Been thinking about upgrading from my old GTX 1070 setup. Not trying to go crazy expensive but want to play some newer games without everything looking like a potato. Probably looking at a 4070 or 4080. Any of you guys done recent upgrades? What's the real world performance jump like?

Honestly with the way prices are right now you might as well wait a bit. The market keeps shifting. What games are you mainly playing?

What's your monitor and resolution? That's the real answer here. A 1070 can still crush it at 1080p but if you're trying to do 1440p high refresh it's probably time. I upgraded from almost the same card and the difference was huge.

Do it. Life's too short to game on outdated hardware. Just make sure the wife knows the budget beforehand lol.
