The input lag increases more when using a lower FPS_max, and maintaining a steady 300 FPS is preferable instead of fluctuating between 300 and 500 FPS.

Appears fine. Adjusting a few details allows acquiring a GTX 1070 via this link: https://de.pcpartpicker.com/list/kpmCPs. Alternatively, opt for the RX 480/580 with 8GB RAM to save costs.
