GPU Advice Request: Upgrading 4770 to i7 9600 (lemm.ee)

I'm upgrading from a 4770 to a 9600. This is my budget free living room PC build. I'm trying to keep everything even bottleneck wise.

Helldovers is starting to chug like I put water in my cars gas tank. My Gtx1060 is...old.

What GPU should I upgrade to? I was looking at 2080s for around $200.

Does anyone have any better ideas?

Yes, thank you for this. I'm going to dig more though some options. It might be just me, but the CPU/GPU benchmark and bottleneck sites seem like their just covering their asses on performances? Like they don't want to be explicit about pairing cards and processors.
