I saw this video on YouTube about a Benchmark View: https://youtu.be/fVEssWXH3Ak In there they were testing a 3080 Ti and it was doing pretty good to put that way. But when I decided to test my own rig, I noticed my frame rate was way lower than theirs by about -70fps. So I set up the exact same settings as him and went to the same places he checked on 1440p. It ended up being exactly the same thing with me getting 85-100fps while he got 150-175fps. That guy has a better CPU than mine; I have an Intel Core i3-3900X but they have an Intel Core i5-5900X. The difference between those two CPUs is pretty small though, so the main reason my performance was lower is probably not just that one thing.

No, the difference between those two graphics cards (5900 and 3900) can be as much as 20% even in games! The new Zen 3 chip gets way faster for both IPC and clock speed. It is a huge upgrade compared to the 3900. What about their power plan...

Do you use the same parts for your computer, like a specific motherboard or RAM sticks? Also, do not trust all what you read on YouTube without checking.
