New Build Advise

[Balakir]

Budget (including currency): 1,600 - 2,000 GBP

Country: United Kingdom

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: FFXIV, WOW, Cyber Punk 2077, New Tripple A games, Docker (dev environment), IntelliJ IDEs

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): 
Monitor: Samsung G9 5120 x 1440
GPU: Nvidia 3070ti
No peripherals required.

Current base system is a i7-4790K so looking for an upgrade. I have no preference of Intel or AMD but would be looking at 13th Gen or Ryzen 7000. I will initially start with the 3070ti but will upgrade this to either 4080 / RX 7900 XT / RX 7900 XTX after we see proper reviews and comparisons. Case wise I am looking to use a Fractal Design Torrent or Corsair 5000D AIRFLOW.

Outside of that just looking for suggestion on what people would see as a reasonable build that would last up to four years before considering next build.

Personally I wouldn't do this since you'll probably just waste money buying a placeholder gpu to then replace it very soon. I'd either reccommend to run on the igpu and then buy the gpu, or just wait for the new cards to come out entirely  and buy your system then.

If you were buying something today though, I'd reccommend something like this

It seems to me like OP already has the 3070Ti, and will be using that as a placeholder until the newer, better cards release.

 

Personally, I'd spend the extra cash on a Core i7 here as well.

Yup I already have the 3070ti had it for a while now though I would have preferred a 3080 I wasn't for paying the prices for them and was waiting on 4000 series and 7000 series from AMD but got the 3070ti for MSRP so was nice upgrade from my old 1080 while waiting. Once I get a new card for myself the 3070ti will make its way into a family members machine as an upgrade.

It appears I misunderstood so you can disregard what i was saying above.

I'd argue that spending at the very least £100 extra for 2 more cores dosent seem like a good choice, since at least for the op's uses, the 13600k should be enough
