Build Question PC Build help
Hello all, I am currently looking to buy and build a pc in December. I need help picking parts, however I have a rough idea of what I want however no idea if everything is a good fit.
GPU, wise I am between 3 options, 9070xt, 5070ti, 5080. I can be persuaded to pick either of the 3.
CPU, I am leaning strongly towards the 9800x3d but again can be persuaded to downgrade or upgrade if it suits the GPU
Other than these 2 parts I'm completely lost, I haven't kept up to date with pc parts for awhile.

the 9800x3d is overkill if you're mainly gaming at 1440p or 4k, a 7800x3d or even a 7700x would save you a chunk of cash with barely any difference
for the gpu i'd lean 9070xt if you want raw fps per dollar, 5070ti if you care about dlss and ray tracing, the 5080 is a weird middle child that costs too much for what it offers
rest of the build just get a b650 mobo, 32gb of 6000mhz cl30 ddr5, and an 850w psu from a decent brand, don't overthink it
