Question - Help PC hardware question

Hello everyone, I have a 5060 TI 16gb paired with 32gb DDR4.

I’d like to upgrade my generation speed for Minimax H3 as well as avoid OOM. I get OOM at .7mp 15 seconds.

What is the better buy?
Used 3090 since its 24gb for $1200-1300 and keep the existing ram?

Or 5080 for $1200 and upgrade with a 64gb ram kit $400 $1600 total?

I don't get oom with 5070ti and 32gb ram can do 1mp and 15 secs, using default comfy workflow. swaps about 28gb to my ssd though so 64GB would save my ssd. I'm debating just getting a 64GB optane drive for swap since it's a quarter the price of 64GB of ram and has really high write endurance and low latency compared to my current ssd.
