Upgrading from 3090 (5k2k)

Hi all,
I've been gaming on what used to be a high-end PC with a Ryzen 5950X, 3090, and 64GB DDR4 RAM, using a 4K IPS monitor. I switch between 1440p and 4K depending on the game. I mainly play single-player games like Metro Exodus, Stalker 2, and Cyberpunk, where graphics aesthetics matter more than raw FPS.

Is an upgrade to a 5080 worth it? I plan to get the new LG 39 5K2K, and I know this will push the 3090 past its limits, it’s already a bit of a stretch.

Do you think the CPU will be a bottleneck?
Will the added value of better base FPS + FG and DLSS make a noticeable and worthy change?

Thanks!
