Help me upgrade for max 4K gaming

So guys I'm have the following components and I'm looking to upgrade to get max 4K ,

I m assuming my CPU , Board , Ram and drives are ok ?

7800X3D
64GB Ram
B650 Mainboard
2X 2TB M.02 drives
Asus TUF Gaming 1000W 80 Plus Gold
7900XTX
LG OLED42C34LA, 42 inch TV

The TV is awesome but since it sits 2 foot from my face and is only 122hz I'm looking to downsize it to a 32 inch wide screen. I also need higher hz for Overwatch , Fortnight and Apex

Looking at an alienware 32 4K QD 240HZ and an RTX 5090 to replace the LG a d the 7900xtx , anything else I might need ?

7900XTX is a great 4k card, it would have no problem hitting 200+ frames on those 3 games where you list you really want the higher refresh rate for.

Is all fine, no need to touch anything, since you have the kind of PC we'd spec for 4K today.

The only thing even remotely worth doing is getting a 5090, but I'd personally not bother given the cost. Maybe if you luck out on an FE and get a decent price selling your 7900xtx, but frankly I find the entire 5000 series underwhelming, and that's without concerns of missing ROP's and the awful power connector.

I'd skip this gen entirely tbh.

I actually have the alienware 32 4K QD 240HZ, have run it with a 5080 and 5090. The 5090 will be a pretty significant difference over your 7900 XTX, particularly if you use RT, and moreso with DLSS 4 transformer. But as others have said nothing else in there will hold you back at all at 4K, and even the GPU upgrade needs a good think given the price difference from your 7900 XTX. That's a lot of money.

Missing ROPS shouldn't be an issue as you can return whatever you get. The power connector might be a concern but I have a Thermal Grizzly Wireview hooked up to mine and that's keeping me optimistic.
