It will technically run, but whatever CPU you have in there is going to massively bottleneck a 2080. Also, this is a pre-built MSI Nightblade right? If you are still running the original system, the PSU is not going to be sufficient.

So you're basically getting a new computer? In that case, don't mess around with an old system and get a new computer.

Unfortunately upgrading to a different graphics card is much easier than the Motherboard, CPU and RAM. Mobo, CPU and RAM will need to be upgraded together, but luckily prices for DDR4 have dropped from their outrageous prices a few months back. I would figure getting a lower end Mobo, 16GB DDR4, and maybe a Ryzen 5 2600 would run about $400. 

 

I'm unfamiliar with the prices of Intel's 8th and 9th gen i5 processors, but when it comes to tight budgets, ryzen is a good go-to.
