5Ghz 7700K remains sufficient for 3080 @ 1440p HRR.
5GHz 7700K remains a solid choice for gaming today. The gamers nexus review also highlights the 3300X, which continues to perform well even at higher-end configurations like the 2080 Ti.
Sure, I believe it should work well at 60 frames per second in most games. Consistently above 100 could be challenging if the game is more CPU-intensive, and whether the GPU gets fully used depends on the graphical settings.
At 1440p resolution, performance is still acceptable. With more threads being implemented in games, current capabilities may become insufficient, but it should hold up for the next 1-2 years. Keep in mind, even with some bottlenecks present, a 3080 graphics card should still work well at this resolution.
