Ha, my system is exactly identical! I really have no reason to upgrade, besides maybe 5950X/5900XT for more cores for compiling software (I run Gentoo on it).

My 6900XT is a slightly cheaper frankenstein with the 6950XT full chip but 6900XT clocked VRAM. It’s so efficient. The fans don’t even spin for some games. There’s nothing it can’t play at max settings, but I’m also rendering af 1600x1200 on a CRT.

I got ripped off years ago on a 1440p monitor from amazon that turned out to be 1080p, so at 1080p I doubt there is anything my nice card can not handle right now (and in the next few years at least).
