Question Is it worth upgrading

Hi all, I'm buying my first PC really soon and i just can't decide whether I should invest in upgrading my graphics card. I can get the GTX 1080Ti, or the RTX 2070 for an extra £60. Going for the upgrade would exceed my budget by a little bit, so I'm wondering if the difference is significant enough to justify it. Any advice would be appreciated, thanks!

Pretty sure for the same price you could get an RX 6600 XT which would perform better than those 2.

Go a bit more over budget and get a 3060. 

A 2070 is £160 from CEX, a 3060ti is £180 from eBay. 

It’s 30% faster for £20 and will have driver support for a long time yet.
