i currently have a GTX 760 Superclocked, and i was looking at getting a 1080, mine works fine and i can play all my games at max, (cs:go,cod, and misc) but r6 seems to be a little too much, is it worth the upgrade? or just stick with the 760 for now, not trying to get something crazy expensive so a 1080 is kinda my option atm for pc spending

What's your budget and currency?
What monitor(s) are you using with the system?
What are the rest of your specs?
What exactly do you use your system for?

Well, we need your currency at least?
Also how much is the GTX 1080 you're looking at? If you're not going to give us a budget.
Is R6 the most demanding game you play, and only situation where you're not happy with performance?

yes r6 is the only game that stresses it, and im USD, sorry. i honestly thought the 1080 was gonna be the best for the price but CRTL posed a 1660 for what i saw a 1080 for not too long ago so now i just wanna make sure itll be a good upgrade that i can do without having to do other upgrades aswell to make it worth it

Even a GTX 1650 is going to be enough for R6 Siege at 1080p60Hz. I definitely wouldn't recommend a GTX 1650 though. At the very least, go for a GTX 1650 Super.

A GTX 1080 will out-perform a GTX 1660 and $220 is a pretty good price for a 1080. However, I'm guessing that was a used GTX 1080 at that price, so it's up to you whether you'd prefer to buy new or used.
If you're buying new, I honestly wouldn't bother with the vanilla GTX 1660. Just get a GTX 1660 Super, you'll find plenty for $220ish.
