GPU for 1440K 3D gaming from gtx1060

Hi,
Just as title says. I am looking to upgrade from a strix gtx1060 6Gb to something better that allows me to play in 3D in 1440p with just minimum 50fps. The 1060 was just fine up to 1080p but it is not enough, even for me, for 1440p. I have been looking around and I could get a second hand strix gtx1080 a8g for 300€, a rtx2070 is around 600€ here.
Looking reviews it seems that at 1080p and 1440p the rtx2070 only improves on average 10fps over the 1080 which to me seems really dissapointing, specially considering the ~300€ cost difference among both options. Am I missing something? What would be your recommendation? I am not willing to spend so much as ~600€ but I could consider (not sure I'll do, but I'd consider) a price tag like that if it would bring some clear benefits over other cheaper options…
Thanks!
