@keynes Sorry... I've not much to add to your thread, but still Hello! long time no see etc. 
Welcome back
Further to what @Scott noted above, SLi (now nvlink) simply isn't a thing anymore for gaming - if you're doing 'other' things (where nvlink might be used) then probably a 3090 or potentially even a Quadro type card is more appropriate for your uses.
The only Geforce card which offers nvlink is the 3090 and nvidia won't be updating their gameready drivers supporting dual-GPU setups anymore and there is an ever diminishing list of games which support it.

If it's for production work then definitely. If its for gaming then the 3080 would do a better job for the outlay imo.
If you wanted to splash out and you don't mind the wait then the 3080 Strix would be a fine choice. Just check lengths as the cards can be quite long 😁

Allo allo @keynes, long time no see!
Nothing to add, just wanted to say a big hi, really good to see you
If you're looking to upgrade the monitor/s, and it's for gaming, the Samsung G9 paired with either 3080 or 3090 would be a storming option, it's quite frankly the be all and end all for gaming and productivity IMHO.

PDF's you say? You probably need 2x 3090's just to think about opening a PDF especially if you want high FPS on those PDFsProduction work?
Most taxing application is Zoom and a few PDF. Mostly gaming.

I had my eye on that same monitor but don’t think it will fit In my office. Currently a predator X34 (i think?)
