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?

Oh yeah, arc battle mage requires resizable BAR and a few other newer cpu/pcie memory tricks to perform correctly that make it not great on cpu's older than maybe 10th/11th gen intel or ryzen 2.
