Are the new RTX graphics cards from Nvidia even worth the money?

I'm going to upgrade my pc soon and I was wondering if I should buy a new gpu. Currently, I have a GTX 1060FE.
I wanted to upgrade because I've had my pc for a good 4 years now (I made the mistake of buying Alienware), and I feel that it's time to upgrade.
Any tips? Or should I just keep my 1060 for now?
