I currently have a gtx 1080.

I'm looking at upgrading to a 2080ti or maybe even a 3090 as the 3090s are just a few hundred more than the 2080 and is a biiiiiiig performance jump up according to the shit I've been watching.

Is it worth it? the 1080 is becoming obsolete. I have a 4k monitor but play my games at 1440p because the 1080 (as well as just about anything else except maybe the 3090, but even it can't get 60fps doing 4k on maxed out settings for these high-end games I want to play. But at 1440p the 3090 or maybe even the 2080 or 2080ti would be enough.

Or is there an AMD option that is much better than the 1080 but cheaper than the Nvidia options? I don't know shit about AMD cards.

What's the rest of your specs? Could be GPU is fine and you have a bottleneck somewhere else.

I7-7700k I think, 16gb of RAM, SSD. Gigabyte Z270 ultra durable gaming motherboard. Gtx 1080

I would bump up your ram and wait for inventory.... then go full upgrade on your motherboard and cpu as well.
