I have an Asus RT-ax86u WiFi 6 router, would this be a worthwhile upgrade?

What makes you think so? 1GB seems like a good amount. The flint 2 is a very good router, lots of people like it, and it also has 1GB of RAM. It's a very popular model for running adblockers, etc.. https://static.gl-inet.com/www/im...251103.pdf

Why do you want to upgrade? That's still a great router. If it's working fine I would keep it. If you have faster than gigabit internet might be a good idea to upgrade.

Asked Google Gemini and it confirmed my thinking:"Buy the RT-BE82U if you have a multi-gigabit internet plan (e.g., 2Gbps), own (or plan to buy) Wi-Fi 7 compatible phones/laptops, and want wired ports that all support 2.5 Gbps"
