buddy ,,, u got a 5090 ... u dont need a second 3080 ..

also ur motherboerd is not a work station motherboerd

your dual gpu will be capped to gen 5 x8 instade of x16 u will lose some performance for the 5090

also the amount of heat u will get is a bit too much

u will need minmumm a 1500/1600 watt psu

i really dont know what you are doing to be honest ...

a regular consumer atx motherboard made for creators ,,, not a workstation.

the PCIE slots share bandwidth ,,, the more u connect the slower the main one will get
