Currently the resolution is 2560x1080, but increasing to 3440x1440 could be an option. That said, the budget I mentioned earlier applies only to the PC. Thank you!

I have a question, because I’m prepared to invest more than 50% more, what advantages does this configuration offer?
I’m wondering if it’s worth it, since I’ve seen that similar performance and durability can be achieved with more modest parts. I’m not looking for a lot of spending to feel satisfied—actually, I prefer that.
Of course, the biggest change is in the GPU. Is the 5080 really worth the double price?
Thanks again!

Additionally, you might want to think about (for prices under $50 an extra):
1) A PCIe 5x4 SSD
2) A 1000W power supply
and keep an eye out for USB-C 20Gbps connectors. Most motherboards include a built-in port for a front I/O case panel.

The 5080 performs about 15% better than the 5070 for a 25% improvement. I attempted to include a 5090 in the build, but it didn’t fit the budget well. The motherboard is fairly basic—it lacks PCIe 5, USB 4, and Wi-Fi 7—but those features aren’t crucial.
The 4TB of fast storage provides ample room for installing many games.
