Gfx Card upgrade time...or not?

For context, the 1070 launched at $379 and the 1080 at $549.

AdoredTV says someone leaked him info that the 2070 is 40% faster than the 1070 so there's that to soothe the burn (if accurate).
Other rumours state that the 2070 is faster than the Titan XP. Faster at what remains to be seen, though.

@OP: be patient. Wait for the reviews to come out before pulling the trigger. If you've survived through the 2.5 years of the 10 series with a 960, you can afford to wait a month or so longer. And yes, 1070/80/80ti's will drop in price drastically.
 
I'm currently sporting an NVidia GTX 960 4GB card that I bought back in 2016 I think it was.

It's been working fine, but I was thinking it might be time for an upgrade.
I'm currently rocking a GTX970 I bought back in 2015 and I still haven't seriously considered upgrading.
 
Will they? Considering the new cards are looking to be really expensive...

Unless Navi can provide some bang for buck against the 10 series, I also don't see the 10x cards dropping in price. Nvidia is going to own the high-end segment for at least the next six months or so.
 
Tomb Raider ran between 30-50fps with RT on, apparently. On 1080p...

Definitely need to wait for independent reviews.

The 4k HDR numbers are not using ray tracing... it's traditional rasterised stuff.

I don't know much about what a 1080 or 1080 Ti do at 4k...not paid attention to it.
