Budget (including currency): $2000
Country: USA
Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Some AAA titles but most trying to do RTX and have a better VR system. I just want it to be smooth.
Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): So I already own a PC but I want a second PC from scratch with the $2000 budget. I tried researching so I’m interested in ATX cases/motherboards. I’m open for any suggestions. I just have a few requirements that my motherboard should have and stuff for future upgrades.
1. 2 - M.2 NVMe slots
2. 2 - PCIE 4 slots for 2 GPU‘S(I only want one GPU for now but willing to listen)
3. I want the $699 3080 included in the budget but I might end up spending more than $2000 for the 3090. So I need a case that fits both. I might have an open case that’s basically a test bench so the GPU fits.
4. 4 slots for RAM
5. I would want more than 3000 Hz on each stick of RAM because I currently have 2666Hz
I mainly plan on using this to play VR and to do ray tracing. I don’t care for the 20 series. I also prefer intel as it works better for me.
I have an AOC 32 Inch Curved Monitor 144Hz and 1920x1080. Then I also have the valve index so that’s another 144 Hz and whatever resolution on each lens sorry
