I bought a NZXT PC about a year ago that has a 3060 Ti graphics card, and I'm thinking about upgrading to a 5080. Can I just remove the old card and install the new one, or do I need to consider other components along with the new graphics card?

I doubt your current PSU will suffice for the RTX 5080. You’ll likely need a more powerful power supply, so be ready for that.
Don't forget to measure the dimensions of the new graphics card! Check the specs to see if it fits in your case before making a purchase.
First off, it really depends on your power supply. What wattage are you currently using? You’ll want to make sure your PSU can handle the new graphics card’s power requirements.
