 so I bought this https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07WNS5L69/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
 
 or should i return and get https://www.evga.com/products/product.aspx?pn=08G-P4-3081-KR
would it be worth that price difference?
 
I use 2k monitor

    What web searches have you done to compare the performance of these cards ... in the Game you play & at the resolution of your monitor ?
     
    I made this search:  EVGA RTX 2080 SUPER BLACK review
     
    This was the First thing listed:  EVGA GeForce RTX 2080 Super Black Review | TechPowerUp
    --------------------------------------------------
    I made this search:  EVGA GeForce RTX 2070 Super FTW3 Ultra review
      First thing listed:    EVGA GeForce RTX 2070 Super FTW3 Ultra Review | TechPowerUp
     
    ----------------------------
     
    2080 Super you mentioned - Looks to be about 15-20% better in FPS on the results I glanced at

    Price diff is 99$ even after using Associate Code. My question is it worth it?
    Would I be able to do Step Up if I got the card off Amazon??

    Asking if it is worth it is a really subjective question. Do you want or need an extra 15-20% FPS while playing in 1440p? Is that worth $99 dollars to you? There is a quantified difference between the cards as CoolGTX showed, but only you can decide if that performance gain is worth it.

    According to this you can still get the step-up if its from an authorized reseller.  https://www.evga.com/support/stepup/   However if buying from a 3rd party seller on Amazon not all of them are authorized resellers.
