Should I upgrade to Nvidia's new RTX cards?

[Hammahness]

I just saw Nvidia's presentation of their new upcoming flagship cards and I was wondering if I should upgrade my current graphics card to the upcoming RTX 2080 (Not the Ti version). Right now I currently own a GTX 1080 which I know is already a very powerful card and is still pretty recent but I own an ASUS PB287Q and play all my games at 4k 60 fps or as close as I can get to that while at the same time having my settings satisfactory enough. Do you think buying a RTX 2080 will provide a worthy performance boost and be more future proof for 4k gaming or should I just stick with the 1080 for a little more while before upgrading?

Need to wait for benchmarks before you will have any idea of the performance gains you would get. Cannot answer at the moment.

If you have nothing better to do and tons of money why not? Otherwise best to wait and see

Depend on what games, you should check your games from vendors, extremebench.com got some games covered, for now, I'd stick to 1080.

The future of RTX should be bright on VR and AR, as microsoft also maturing their DXR.

In my own experience while playing on highest setting preset, I didn't pay much attention on graphic detail, maybe other need fully immersed graphic detail so RTX would be their dream come true.

I would wait until I had a motherboard CPU, GPU, RAM and PSU that was worthy of it

He is running 4K, his cpu & RAM are not going to limit performance and he didn’t mention his psu.

updated my post with my full specs if you're still curious

Obviously wait for review first. Though i imagine by time reviews already coming out the card will be harder to get and price will be inflated as well. I heard some people that pre-order 2080ti will not going to get theirs until november. Either the level of pre-order are really that crazy or nvidia simply severely limiting the amount RTX they intend to sell this year for obvious reason.
