Hi Guys, just a quick question as I know very little about PC building in general. I have a 1080ti currently built in my PC, but I want to upgrade to a 3080. Just from general reading, I see that its important your CPU is powerful enough to support the GPU to avoid any issues that concern bottlenecks. I have an i7-8700k. Is this enough to support the 3080?
