I am thinking about building new PC, so I made a list of components. What do you think? Any suggestions?
I don't know which GPU model/brand to get yet. Would like to play at 1440p >60Hz so GTX1070 is not enough if I don't wanna buy new GPU in a few years (probably 4-5 years as I always do).

- CPU: AMD RYZEN 7 2700X
- GPU: GTX 1080 Ti / GTX 1080
- HDD: WD Gold 2TB
- SSD: Samsung 860 EVO 250 GB
- RAM: Patriot Viper RGB Series 16 GB KIT DDR4 3200 MHz CL16 DDR4 Black
- MB: ASUS ROG STRIX B450-F GAMING
- CAS: NZXT H500 Black
- PSU: Corsair HX750

    Why no Titan V or GTX 2080?

    @iKameo Make it NVMe and +500GB and you will be all set for few years.

    ++ for Ryzen, the 1080 or 1080ti is indeed the best choise in fps/$.
    I'd wait a few weeks, AMD is rumored to release Polaris 30 in October.
    Also, yeah. More SSD is nice

    @iKameo I will definitely buy one, but in the future. I will probably get Samsung 960 EVO 500GB. Anyways, I think installing OS on such drive is waste, so I will use classic SSD for OS and NVMe for some heavy programs / games.

    @iKameo I wanted to buy i7, but as it's getting more and more expensive because there is literally no stock at the moment and I sometimes I want to render stuff, Ryzen is probably better choice at the moment

    @Avyiel I heard about new Polaris, I will probably wait to see if they are any good.

    @iKameo And monitor: I already have a new one, DELL 27" 1440p 144Hz with GSync

    @irene There is just not difference big enough to install OS on nvme. Maybe 1 second faster startup? That's not much, I will rather use the space for other stuff where the difference is much more noticeable, like IDEs, games,...

    I would get a 500GB SSD and a 4TB HDD.

    @irene Ok guys, you outvoted me, I am going to buy 2 M.2 drives instead of 1 + 1 classic SSD.

    @irene Probably prices of these drives will be going down, so I will buy just one now and the second one - bigger one later.
