Hey everyone! I just upgraded to an LG 5K2K monitor and I'm eager to dive into 4K gaming. Unfortunately, my current GPU, a 4070 SUPER, can't handle it for most games, so I'm thinking about upgrading to either a 5080 or possibly a 5090, though I'm still on the fence about the 5090. I have some parts ready for installation that I've been holding onto for a while: a Lian Li O11 Vision Compact Case, Lian Li LCD fans, and a TRYX Panorama 360. You can check out my current build in the picture linked. I'd love to hear your insights on my choices and any advice you might have!

Just a heads up, but your PC Part Picker links were set to private when I checked them out. Make sure they're public so everyone can see your build!
I had a 4090 before switching to the 5090, and trust me, you'll need a powerful GPU for 4K gaming. If you're not okay with artifacts from upscaling, go for the more powerful option for sure!
I'd recommend going for the 5090 if you can swing it. The 5080 is a bit of a letdown in terms of performance compared to the cost, and even the 5070ti isn't great value right now. You want something that'll really push those frames at 4K!

Thanks for the heads up! I've made them public, so you should be able to see it now.
