Worth Upgrading from 390x to a 1070 or 1080?

I went the same route and the 1080 is league's better.I went from a 390X to a 1080. Main reasons were I moved my home office to the smallest room in the house because of a new baby, so I wanted to reduce heat created by the PC and also because I went from a 1600P monitor to 4K. I mainly play Overwatch whenever I have time, so performance wise I guess maybe I could have still been ok with the 390X, but I do notice a big difference with noise and heat which is worth the upgrade alone for me. Much quieter and cooler.
I did the same thing but was to get rid of some 250w GPU's and go down to the 1080's 180w power. My whole rig runs cooler and quieter now which was the idea behind the upgrade for me.I went from a 390X to a 1080.

Guys this game gets 144fps with a 390x or 980 @ 1440p resolution. Apparently performance is bugged @ 4K resolution in that game so going with a 1080 is pointless as a upgrade. Even the newer D:OS2 gets ~60fps @ 1080p with a 270X. Those games just don't need a huge amount of grunt power to work well.I mostly play divinity original sin.
