Does GPU Upgrade=Better Timeline Performance?

I only have a GTX 1070 8gb ram and from what i can see getting a 2060 or even a 3060ti is not going to make a huge difference in timeline playback so I'm here to ask if this is wrong or right.

450 chipset mb
Ryzen 7 1700x
32gb 2400 ram

I do fine with my computer but the only thing that is kind of slow for me is noise reduction. Will a RTX card speed certain effects up?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Yes.

You won't find a comparison here to the 1070, but you can get some sense of comparative NR performance, across current GPUs, with these benchmarks:

Will a RTX card speed certain effects up?

Yes, due to more and faster CUDA cores but not due to the RTX features.

Thanks for your answers! Has anyone done the upgrade from 1070 or 1080 to 3080 here?

I went from a laptop with a 1070 to a desktop with a 3080.
To me it all seems smoother and snappier. Rendering is also faster.
However, I ofcourse also had a major CPU and RAM upgrade in the process...

UPDATE____________________ I just upgraded from gtx 1070 8gb to RTX 2060 6gb for 500 CAD used.THen I sold the 1070 for 300 CAD..., a lot lower than the 600+ prices I see online...., Just because scalpers and miners are messing up prices doesn't mean I have to follow their lead. Someone sold me that card for 350 and I passed on the respect!

I just got a RTX 2060 GPU and there are things that those tiny Tensor cores do that you will not even know on a GTX card.

2070 or higher is too much money for me and has a low ROI in my opinion. The low end rtx upgrade is a good upgrade and I highly recommend even for basic playback. I have won an award editing on the 1070 so I can get the job done but the change to 2060 is VERY noticeable.

I don't think I would need much more than the 2060 for what I do now. IF you want to save money get his card. It works better as a Resolve video card than a gaming card. There are things you will not even see with a GTX card that work in the RTX series.
