Oof. None, I'd try to find a used 3060 if I could.

How well do 3080s perform for modern games? My rig with this card doesn't get used much, so I'm considering selling.

I think a 3080 should perform ok at 1440p, may not be at Ultra quality but it should be powerful enough for WZ/Apex etc
I'm still rocking a 3070.

I realized running at 1440 wasn't helping things so I tried dropping it to 1080 and it's a pretty stable 55-60fps now so I might just swap the monitor instead.

Any good recommendations for a dual-monitor arm/stand? I don't need anything fancy, just something where I can simply mount to a desk and adjust the height. I have two 27" monitors and looking to reclaim some real estate on my desk. Thanks!

I am using a shitty basic one from Amazon and it works? https://www.amazon.ca/VIVO-Monitor-A.../dp/B009S750LA
You can't vary the height of the monitors, it's either both up or both down but it works for me. More room for a bigger mess on my desk.

I have a similar one from PrimeCables, it worked great for me for ~3 years. https://www.primecables.ca/p-349985-...bles#sku353763

Boujee option but a lot more palatable when buying used from office furniture recyclers

That's what we use at work. Thanks for giving us your tax dollars for bougie monitor arms.

Ordered the Prime Cables one shared by underscore. Thank you all for the great suggestions!
