Considering Buying Another RTX 3090 - Benefits?

Currently using dual RTX 3090s, and am happy with it. But never satisfied lol :)
I know I've basically maxed out my single stream TPS. (140+ on standard benchmarks now).
But I only have 48GB VRAM, So I can only do two concurrent requests @ 256k Context Length, anymore and my KV-Cache will cause OOM errors.
So I am considering adding a 3rd RTX 3090, and putting the 3rd one in Pipeline Parallel with the other two. That way I don't lose performance due to bandwidth bottlenecks, but get more room for concurrent requests.
I am likely to move to concurrent agents soon, but honestly have limited experience with them.

-> What kind of results did you get in single stream / concurrent stream performance?
