No.
what kidney did you want to give up for that?
You have two eyes. So buy two of them and two monitors.

Unless you spend at least 10,000 dollars on your gaming center, you will make Jensen cry.

About $6k more than a great gaming PC just to play your games at 180fps instead of just 165.

Depends on your current PC Rig Specs and what resolution you are targeting?

Are you attempting to play UltraHD 4K resolution gaming? If not, it's overkill. Otherwise the NVidia RTX 4090, RTX 5080 or RTX 5090 is ideal for juicing that, upon using a single card.

I've personally tested a ASUS ROG Swift PG32UCDM 32" 4K 240Hz OLED Gaming Monitor with an ASUS GeForce RTX 5090 ROG ASTRAL 32GB Graphics Card, and found it quite enjoyable at 4K + HDR + Ray Tracing + G-SYNC. Butter smooth performance. Consider the RTX 5090 ROG ASTRAL graphics card back fan, depending on your PC setup, because it will push air up into the top area, if also using an air CPU cooler - this could suck in the air (most will exit the top, but something to consider). Also with OLED monitors, you need to run pixel cleaning every now and then to avoid screen burn in (newer OLED monitors have a lot of features to prevent it, but also something to consider).

I've also previously tested an ASUS GeForce RTX 4090 ROG Strix OC 24GB Graphics Card with an Acer Predator XB271HU 27" 4K 165Hz LCD Gaming Monitor. Again 4K + HDR + Ray Tracing + G-SYNC. Butter smooth performance. The Acer Predator XB271HU monitor's fan was however annoying and loud sometimes.

I would strong recommend using a G-SYNC monitor with a high refresh rate.

Also, make sure the PCI-e power cable has room to flex around the side of the graphic card and isn't cramped up against the side of the PC Case.

Now I can get that tech via my work, so not dishing out the full price tag in stores. If you have the cash for it and your PC Specs won't bottleneck it / PSU will be enough to juice it / PC Case has plenty of space to fit it / and your monitor is high-end (or you have that upgrade path in plan), they are a great beast of a card (considering what brand you pick). With the ASUS brand, I quite like it and have no issues, but there's such thing as an "ASUS Tax" (extra cost) in some places.

No because you would be paying $2000 over what it`s worth:

Seeing as there are no new games worth playing on the horizon, no.

Putting together a computer is probably easier than you think it is.

$700 gets you a 9950x3D from Best Buy
$1,330 gets you an M.S.I. X870E Godlike motherboard. from Newegg.
A Darkrock Classico Max Storage Master E-A.T.X. case case with 4 120mm fans costs $94 off of Newegg
A Corsair HX1500i costs $400 direct from corsair.
64 gigs of G. Skill Trident 6400mzh R.A.M. costs $290 off of Newegg.
A P.N.Y. Verto 5090 costs $2,600 from Walmart[www.walmart.com]
A Noctua NH-D15 costs $100[www.amazon.com]
A 4 TB Samsung 990 Pro with heatsink costs $320[www.newegg.com]
Let's throw in a 24 gig. H.D.D. just for good measure. It's only $250[www.newegg.com]

I'm not choosing particularly value focused parts except for maybe the case, and that only adds up to a subtotal $5,400. Even with sales tax it'll only cost below $6000.

So unless an hour or two of your time is worth $1,400, I'd say the answer is no, and if it was you wouldn't be asking because the amount of money in your bank account would be meaningless for anybody except your accountants, so just no.
