Hello all,

 

So I have already purchased the parts listed below for my new build (gaming oriented). My goal is immersive AAA on a premium, but reasonable, gaming rig. Ideally, I am thinking of UWQHD @120hz as my display of choice. My issue is I am having trouble justifying a flagship 2080ti for roughly double the cost of a flagship 2080 with the performance scaling nowhere near as well. What are your suggestions for best value display/GPU? Total budget around $3500.
