I have a friend with a similar set up and he can definitely play games at 1080p 144hz, but a game like valorant you may be limited to 60-90. Also I say similar set up, the only difference is he has a 1660 Ti vs your 1660, might be worth the (msrp) price difference.

good build, but change the case. h510 is pretty bad. go with a corsair 4000d maybe? and are you sure you only want 8gb of ram? 16 is rly useful. you can be a bit free with ur money since the build so far is only 640 pounds

i used to have a 1650 run at like 300 fps ?

I cannot see the budget. Nevertheless, I'm going to assume 700-900 dollars. I think this build would be great for your use case.

In Valorant? I am not familiar with how the games runs as I don't play it often. I am basing on what few times I did play.

From what I see online, 150-350 FPS at 1080p depending on the quality settings.
