Intel 9th generation owners, what are your plans f

My first thought is this: this is why you should choose the right GPU for your workload. Not sure why it matters if a 3080 is bottlenecked at 1080p. Yeah, it says 2.82% on your proc, but that's what, 7 fps at 240? Doesn't it still get dozens of FPS more than a lesser card? The 3070 doesn't bottle neck at that res.

My second thought is the bottlenecks I've checked are negligible: .38% at 1440p and .26% at 4K from the 3080 on your proc.

If this is about competitive gaming, you get what you have to have, I guess. There may be a slight edge to a pro, but the vast majority of us can hardly see a difference between, say, 120 and 150 fps, let alone 230 and 240.

The Intel gen 11s were a bust.

The Alder Lakes are out now, and there are specs and benchmarks available.

Time will tell about Zen 4, but I expect another leap ahead of Intel to compete with Raptor Lake, blowing by Alder Lake.

If you have a legit reason to obsess over bottlenecking, be my guest. For the vast majority of us it should not be an issue. If you upgrade to a new GPU that gets an average of 30fps more than the old one, who cares if an older proc reduces that by 5? It's still a heck of an upgrade.
