That is the same argument people used during the Core 2 Duo era. Those who bought Core 2 Quads got the last laugh.
People said that there is no point getting 6 cores when the Nahelem based 990X dropped... Yet those CPU's can still handle every game you throw at it.

If you're going to spend 2000 dollars to upgrade your games, you should just get a better graphics card, though.  That'll give you the biggest benefit.  Instead of upgrading a CPU which gives you an extra 20 FPS on your minimums, and that's being generous.  At that price, you could get two 1080 ti's.
