so im planning to upgrade my 280x to one of these cards and i really cant decide. Is it worth it to get a 1060 or 480x or should i save my pennies and get a 1070 instead?

Defiantly go for the gtx 1070 if you have a 144hz monitor and play first person shooter games.

The gtx 1060 and amd 480 will be ideal for 1080p 60hz screen, where the gtx 1070 will be overkill for that type of screen. I currently have a gtx 1070 for a 1080p 60hz screen, framerates kill my screen, so vertical sync is almost a must, so I need to consider a 144hz screen.

Personally, I'd go for the gtx 1070, a little more future proof, where I don't care right now I've outclassed my monitor, I love that I can run any game no problem at 1080p. The gtx 1070 is probably a true 1440p card, but defiantly not 4k.
