Hey guys, so I’m building a 1440p UW build (Budget 3000CAD), and was set on a 3700x and 5700XT, but I’ve realized I can squeak in a 2080S in my price point. Below is my current build, and I’m going to wait for BF/CM to try to shave a few hundred off and keep it under my budget, but what would be the best 2080S for me? I’m looking for best price per performance.

Any 2080 super will do even the reference cooler. Just get the cheapest one available to you that you like the looks of.

 

On another note switch out that nvme 660p drive for like a samsung evo sata drive or something that also uses tlc same price better performance

Yes I am. I also want to be somewhat future proofed. I don’t want to upgrade every year or two.
