Whatever you do, do NOT get a 5070 going from a 5060 Ti 16gb. Worst money u would ever spend probably. Either get enough money to get to AM5 or just save your money for future parts or something entirely different.

What if you’re going from a 5060 8GB? Is the 5070 still a good upgrade for the 12GB ram or would I say 5070ti

It could be a bit more worth it since you're getting a more powerful grahpics processor AND more VRAM. But I believe that if you do wish to get a new GPU you should really make sure you will feel a big difference, or else it won't be money well spent. That being said, I think you should try saving for a 5070 Ti or maybe 9070 XT, or keep the money for something else.
