Is there any reason to upgrade my AMD Ryzen 9 5950x to a 7900x3d or 7950x3d? (self.buildapc)

I'm currently using an AMD 5950x and an Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 LHR, pushing video to a Dell U4021QW, which is a 40" monitor running 5120x2160@60hz. A few of the games I play are pretty challenged at that resolution, so I'm thinking of upgrading at least the video card. Is there any reason to build a new system with a newer CPU as well?

Buy a 5080 when they are released and then see how your 5950 does.
