Just upgraded to a Gainward GTX1070 Phoenix 8GB from my old XFX R9 280 3GB DD.
I play, stream and record at 1080p...
A good upgrade?

Definitely! Shadowplay is pretty awesome if you are into that sort of stuff.
Yea i use OBS mainly. Is shadow play better?
Fortunately, it is a good upgrade.

In terms of a performance hit, ShadowPlay is as good as it gets though it is far less configurable than OBS. I'd go back to using it if they added a constant bit rate option/longer recording times/being able to record more than one audio track.
If you just want to record some gameplay and upload without much faffing about, it's brilliant. Just make sure that the bit rate is set to 130.
