I saw some news in the last month that Big Navi is targeting 2x 5700xt performance which is a huge improvement for AMD but that would place the chip at just above 2080 ti but below 3080. Not sure about the validity of the report but it sounds reasonable to achieve 2x the previous high end card...

If you can sell your 1070 and add that to the $200, you'll be able to get the next step up and some meaningful gains

Based on historical trends, AMD tends to be able to match the 2nd tier from the top Nvidia GPU. I think the new high end AMD will be sitting around $500 with performance slightly higher than 3070 but below 3080.

I've always used ASUS mobos for over 15 years and they've always been solid. It's hard to tell the difference between motherboards from reviews as most will be around 4 stars on newegg, but generally speaking, I've heard better things from Asus

I've ran both a 1080 and 2080ti with 6700k and the bottleneck is the video card is both cases at high settings at above 1440p

I think the available stock this time appears to be worse than previous releases, though that could be due to the increase in demand
