 So this is the build that I want. I am buying most of it used ( probably the CPU, GPU and maybe motherboard) to make the build around $1400. I know that the price right now for a 1080 TI used is like 500$ but what are the prices for something like a ROG Strix ( the motherboard I want ) or the CPU I want. If any of you guys are really good with used parts then please message me. Also, should you buy a used motherboard? Someone told me that if you are buying a used motherboard to ask for pictures of the CPU socket to see if any of the pins are bent. But honestly, I can't tell the difference between a good mobo and a bent pin mobo. If I do get a used mobo ima ask for a picture then post it on here and see if you guys can help me. Also do you think my monitor is good? or should I get a 244 Hz monitor?

 

Do you guys think PC parts (performance and price) will change in 3 months? Because I'm not buying all this for another 3 months I am scared that something new will come out and it is going to be so much better

you probably wont be able to tell the difference in a 144hz monitor and a 240hz monitor unless you are a professional gamer who is used to 240hz

as for buying parts:

now is actually a great time to buy new as both cyber Monday and black friday are around the corner so you can probaly snag some great deals on hardware then  gl price hunting
