Hey everyone! I'm trying to decide whether I should upgrade my GPU from an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 to the new 5080. I recently upgraded my monitor from a 27" 1440p 144Hz to a 32" 4K 144Hz, but I'm really missing those higher frame rates. I'm considering going back to a 27" 1440p 240Hz OLED monitor (the Asus XG27AQDMG). Here's a quick rundown of my current setup:

* **GPU:** NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 TUF Gaming
* **CPU:** AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D
* **Motherboard:** ASUS ROG Strix B550-I Gaming (Mini-ITX)
* **RAM:** Kingston Fury 32GB (2x16GB) DDR4 3600 MHz
* **Storage:** Samsung 870 1TB M.2 SSD (planning to get more storage)
* **Case:** Cooler Master NR200P Max (280 mm liquid cooling & 850W)

Do you think the upgrade to the 5080 will fit well in my current setup in terms of size and performance? Also, are there any models you'd recommend? If my setup can't handle it, what would I need to change?

Lastly, I'm looking for a good monitor arm for two 27" monitors (one centered and another on the left). Any suggestions for something sleek and budget-friendly? Thanks for your help!

P.S. I noticed there's an Inno3D GeForce RTX 5080 X3 available for 1070 euros. What do you think about that?

If you’re gaming at 1440p, going for a 5070ti might be a smarter choice. It’s slightly cheaper and still performs great for that resolution. Plus, you’re looking at similar VRAM specs with less financial strain!

Yeah, but the price difference is only about 200 euros. Do you think the 5080 is really worth it? How does Inno3D compare as a brand?
