5080 Upgrade and Cooling/PSU Advice

Hi All!

I'm currently running the air-cooled build below in my FormDT1 Sandwich Kit (2.1?) and am trying to categorize the nice to haves vs the must haves. I've been admiring many similar builds across this reddit and would greatly appreciate some feedback as I make my transition to a 5080 GPU!

Current Build

Motherboard: MSI B650i Edge WiFi
CPU: Ryzen 7 7800x3D
CPU Cooler: AXP90-X47 Copper w/ Noctua fan swap
PSU: Corsair SF750
RAM: GSkill Flare X5-6000 16GB x2 (32GB)
GPU: Nvidia 3080Ti FE
Exhaust Fans: Noctua NF-A12x15 PWM Chromax x2

Upgrades List:

Asus Prime 5080 OC - This is a must as I'm running a LG 4K Native / 1080p Dual Mode monitor. Trying to find the vapor chamber vs the EVO card for better temps.

Phanteks T30s - Seemingly not a major upgrade vs what I have?

Corsair SF1000 - Is this necessary to run the 5080?

Thank you all in advance for your feedback!
