Bear in mind that you need more than 8GB VRAM if you want to turn everything up to max settings. But otherwise no issue with 8GB.

Looks you "missing out" actually saved your time as those who got through are being revoked although some are being given 3 months.

For gaming at 1440p, the advantage of 5800x3D is likely small or none; have seen a significant gain in Far Cry 6 but that's only one game....

5900X definitely easier to cool with less fan noise than 5800X. I was also able to undervolt the 5900X more effectively than the 5800X.

If you are gaming at 1440p or higher, most modern games will be GPU limited so you would not get much gain from upgrading to the 5900X....
