I'm currently waiting for my 5080 FE and wondering if I can use my old 1070 Ti GPU with the 9800X3D. I know that the 1070 Ti might bottleneck performance, but I want to get my build up and running to test my RAM purchased off Facebook Marketplace. I just need to make sure the RAM isn't dead on arrival during this wait.

Actually, your computer won't explode from using that combo, no worries there!
No problems at all using that setup. It should run just fine.
There's no need to stress over bottlenecks! Just focus on the performance issues you can actually see. Using your old GPU is perfectly fine—it won't harm anything or damage your setup.
Why would there be an issue? You're all set.
I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work. You should be good to go!
