I recently upgraded my graphics card from an RTX 2080 Super to an RTX 3080, but I'm not seeing a significant increase in performance. I have an Intel i5 11400F processor and I play at 1440p resolution. With the 2080 Super, I was averaging around 57 FPS in Battlefield 6, and now with the 3080, I'm still getting about the same. Can anyone explain why this is happening?

It sounds like Battlefield 6 is quite CPU-intensive, which may be why you aren't seeing a big FPS boost despite the new GPU. Your i5 11400F could be limiting the performance since it can’t keep up with the 3080’s capabilities. Have you checked your CPU usage while playing?
After an upgrade like yours, you usually expect a major performance jump. That said, if your CPU is maxing out, the GPU won't be able to shine. Make sure to monitor your CPU usage while gaming. If it's hitting 100%, then you've found your bottleneck.
What settings are you using in the game? If you're running ultra textures and other high settings but keep other options on low, it might not be enough to make use of the 3080's power. Are you using DLSS? That could help improve your FPS significantly.
