Help with my uncle's gaming system

[Galion]

We've tested most of the parts except for the graphics card, we couldn't decide between these few cards :

Gigabyte RX Vega 56 8gb

Gigabyte GTX 1070Ti 8gb windforce OC

ASUS STRIX RX Vega 56 8gb OC

ASUS Turbo GTX 1070Ti 8gb

Sapphire Nitro+ Limited edition RX Vega 56 8gb

MSI Gaming-X GTX 1070Ti 8gb

Here are the spec of the system :

Cpu: Ryzen 2600X (overclocked to 4.0 by my cousin Eric) 

Motherboard : MSI B450 PRO Carbon AC 

Ram : Corsair Vengeance Pro ddr4 3000mhz (overclocked to 3499mhz by my cousin Eric) 

PSU : Corsair RM750I (Limited edition White) 

 

This is going to be my and Eric's birthday present to him, we hope to get the best system we can to match the monitor he just bought. 

Monitor : LG 1080p, 100hrtz, 3msec refresh rate, scolour 99%,HDR10 450nitz, (freesync 2 promoted on box) 

35 inch ultra-wide

since the monitor is freesync, then the amd platform would be a better sort for gaming

personally, the strix might be the better play, but the limited is 'supposed' to deliver better cooling.

I would go for a 1070ti instead of the Vega 56 as you get slightly better performance and I prefer Nvidia in general for CPU's as they have all the patented software and can use AMD or Nvidia but it does come with a price. I don't know how much you can pay for it, but I don't think the 10 series GPU's are being sold anymore so you may have to go used. If you want to overclock the 1070 ti I would go evga and the Asus is ok.

So strix or sapphire, it's hard to decide oh will either fit into a Fractal design meshify c

The vega 56 and 1070ti will push 1080p 100fps no problem so either is a fine choice.

I would perfer a 1070Ti, but i don't have any freesync monitor, to know what it feels like. But if vega 56 is cheaper go for it.

The strix abit more expensive against the sapphire but both are cheaper, I was thinking I'll get the better asus one what's another $25 anyways.
