Hello,

I'm looking for any help with potential upgrades to my system, currently I can run games pretty smoothly but my fps does drop quite a bit when my other monitor is on, I could turn the second monitor down to 1080p but it still drops quite a bit and I do notice it, this is my current specs.

any suggestions to help or am I better starting again and building a new one?

cheers,
 
Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

Speccy can't identify your PSU nor it's age. You will need to manually mention the make, model and mage of you PSU. What BIOS version are you on for your motherboard? What games are you taxing the system to experience FPS drops?

You're advised to stylize your thread with info asked of in this thread;
so users can chime in with constructive suggestions. We will need to know your location, your budget for your possible upgrade and your preferred site for purchase.

How much VRAM does your RTX 3080 (19GB or 20GB) have, what resolution do you typically play at, and what games are you playing when you notice this?

2 component choices would be 5700x3d.

4070 ti super or 4080 super depends on how deep your pockets can go.
( Pros prices should come down). 5000 series looks like a flop.

Or high end of amd side. Pros more vram.
