Ok, I wanted the forums opinion on my upgrade path. My plan was to go ahead and purchase a LG 27GL850-B since it is on sale for 446.99 right now. Then my plan was to eventually, when stock meets demand, buy a 6800xt to pair with the 1440p monitor. I was hoping to overclock my 3600 slightly more just to minimize the performance loss at 1440p. I would love a 240hz 1440p Ips panel but there are so few options and I am unsure if I can justify buying a 1080p 240hz IPS vs 1440p. I wanted everyones opinion on what the best upgrade paths are.
Side note: SInce I have a b550 i figured I could just slap a 5600x or 5800x in the future.
Update: Went ahead and ordered the LG27GL850-B
