I'm currently upgrading my PC. Bought an i7-10700k and im looking to upgrade my 1080. Is a 3070 a sufficient upgrade and pair for the CPU, or should I spend the extra money and try to snag a 3080?

You should probably wait to see how Big Navi does before making any decision, because you likely won't be able to get your hands on a 3070 anytime soon. That said, I should be receiving my 3080 in the next two weeks.

3070 stocks are rumored to be a little more prepared than the 90s and 80s. But the more I think about it the more I'd rather spend a little extra on the 3080. And I'm not really interested in the Big Navi, whether its a better investment or not. Personal preference I guess, same reason I chose the i7-10700k over waiting for the new AMD chips, just prefer intel.
