Want to stream in future and i will buy z690 with 13700k with 3080
And now i have zebronics h61(PCIE X16 2.0) i5 3570 with 1050w psu

Will zeb h61 support tuf gaming 3080 12gb after 6 months i will upgrade to new mobo
(Dont want to waste money on buying lower graphics card)
 
Support? Yes.

Would it be fine? Not so much.

RTX 3080 is PCI-E 4.0 GPU but your MoBo has PCI-E 2.0. GPU does work, but max 25% of what it is capable of. Since PCI-E 2.0 is 4x times slower than PCI-E 4.0.

I'd go with new CPU-MoBo combo 1st. And while you'd still be using iGPU, the iGPU in 13700K is miles better than what you have in i5-3570,
comparison: https://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compa...GHz-vs-Intel-UHD-Graphics-770/m7696vsm1701638

Or keep using the dedicated GPU you already have with new CPU and MoBo, if it is better than UHD 770.
