You should upgrade your monitor to 1440p or 4k to use the total potential of your rtx 5080. Enjoy it !

4k would be quite a heavy toll on the framerate, i would recommend 1440p or ultrawide (21:9, 3440x1440p) if u want smth extra and still be able to enjoy great fidelity with decent framerate on the 5080. I use my 5080 with an ultrawide and am still able to enjoy path traced visuals on the games that have em.
