    Just to add to this was hoping to get a 3070/3080 card with this budget. Open to other opinions but just have this in my head from looking online

    That depends on your budget, screen size, resolution, what do you want to do with it, etc. Start here to get an idea of what's available on the market:

    and checkout the reviews here

    You'll want a 1440p high refresh monitor (120/144/165hz)

    Check out hardware unboxed as well for reviews. There's lots of options out there now

    got this in the end after a bit of research and a lot of good feedback cheap for the specs but decided to chance it, will let yous know what its like https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B09XDW5GK1


    Thanks for all the help

    It's a Chinese brand so that rules it out in my book. But who knows? In all likelihood you'll never have a problem with it. I do like to company's motto "Koorui - once you have it you have no choice" presumably because they already got your money and they will NEVER return it!! Bwa ha ha ha!!
