hi,
so I do have a GTX 1070 and I'm looking for an upgrade for my GPU, and I don't know what should i take .
my display is 2560x1440 165hz.
what card you think it's best for me?

Sort answear is 2080 ti. All depends to your budget and the prices your country have. You can start from amd RX 5700 XT and go all the way up to RTX 2080 super or 2080 ti. If you looking for more value and have a tighter budget i would look for custom 5700xt (they will released next few days).

I'll buy the GPU like in 3 months .
i'll have enough money for 2080 ti but i feel like its too much in a GPU alone and most likely gonna bottleneck cause of my CPU witch is i5-9600k
and there is actully no AMD prodects in my country at all but i can buy from amazon.

At 1440p the gpu becomes the bottleneck i run 2080 with ryzen 5 1600 without any problem at 1440p. It depends the games you play and the settings you want. Even rtx 2080 ti wont get you that 165 frames at 1440p at some games if you want all the graphics at ultra quality.

i only need 165 frames when i play competitive & fps games the rest of them i'll just need them to go over 60 in ultra settings i dont need AC odysy to run at 165 frams if i can run it way above 60 like 80 that's well be enough

Then with the current products i would go with 5700XT or 2080super. 2070 super is a bit better from 5700XT for 150$ more so i would avoid that. I own a 2080 and i can say that rtx is not a thing and dlss is bad and make the games that support it really blurry. For the price - performance difference between 2080 super and 5700xt i would go with 5700xt. But until 3 months you never know maybe amd release 5800 series cards.

i don't think AMD gonna release something .
my top pick actually was the 2070 super if the price diffrent is big between it and the 5700 xt i might go for the 5700 xt .
I just dont wanna go crazy and take the 2080 ti thats overkill
