Having 2 1440's, yes, you badly need to upgrade video card. Something like a 6800 XT, 4070 may work or might not be strong enough but 4080 is a lot of money, or 3080 Ti.
After you buy a GPU, save up for new board and processor, your 6 cores won't always keep up with graphics card
All of those gpus are way over my desired budget.
Then spend every dollar you can on a video card to power the dual 1440's. Then work towards buying a new motherboard and processor.
no
What games do you want to play and how sensitive to low fps are you? I disagree strongly with the top level comment. The fact that you have two displays doesn't matter and you are limited to 60Hz anyway.
I have a 1070 for two 1440p and one 1080p monitor. But since I don't play any demanding games I'll wait out the Nvidia 5000 series before buying anything new.
No. That is not needed and also ridiculously over budget for most people.
I have a 1070 and am very happy with my 1440 1440 1080 monitor configuration. Keep in mind that op only has 60Hz!
A 3080 would also require a new PSU, maybe the 6800xt as well
