Hello. First time posting on this great community.
To make as short as possible, I read a lot but still can't seem to get what build I would need to play 1440p 144hz on AAA games, RDR2, Resident evil series, BF series, CoD, etc and titles of the sort with ultra graphics and ray tracing.
I would also use it to record and mix audio for which I bought a MOTU interface that I am currently using with my working laptop.
For obvious reason about RT I would be using a 3080ti. This is the setup I had in mind but I was going to go the ddr5 route as well. Bear in mind where I live there is not as big an offer as let's say in the US so these are the parts more suitable from my known supplier.
My budget is $2000-$2300.
Common components
CPU: Intel Core i7-12700K 3.6 GHz 12-Core Processor
CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-D15S 82.52 CFM CPU Cooler
Storage: Western Digital Black SN850 1 TB M.2-2280 NVME Solid State Drive
Video Card: MSI GeForce RTX 3080 Ti 12 GB GAMING X TRIO Video Card
Power Supply: Corsair HX1200 Platinum 1200 W 80+ Platinum Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply.
Case: Corsair 275R Airflow ATX Mid Tower Case (ALREADY OWNED)
DDR5 route:
Motherboard: Gigabyte Z690 Aorus Elite Ax DDR5 Socket LGA 1700
Memory: Memoria Ddr5 32 Gb 5200 Mhz Corsair Vengeance (2x16GB) C40
DDR4 route:
Motherboard: Gigabyte Z690 UD AX DDR4 ATX LGA1700 Motherboard
Memory: Corsair Vengeance LPX 16 GB (1 x 16 GB) DDR4-3600 CL18 Memory X 2
Observations:
I will be buying the system this week.
CASE: I already have the case as I got it on sale and it was the one I wanted.
MB and MEMORY: The options for picking was limited. For example the motherboards are the only ones for ddr4 and ddr5 respectively that I can get on the supplier I buy from.
GPU: The 3080ti is $300 under MSRP .
PSU: The price between PSU is negligible here between 850w 1000w or 1200w corsair series.
STORAGE: I was going to go with WD BLUE SN570. (There is no official samsung vendors or I would be getting a 980 PRO just for the sake of it)
COOLER: Just to be sure I went with the compatible version. I still have the stupid doubt about the black version vs the normal one and if the black somehow makes the pipes less efficient, but this could be a dumb question.
CPU: Since the 13th gen is coming soon and the 13700k apparently will be even better than the 12900k, I see no point in going for the i9. I can save and maybe down the road get an upgrade or make a 2nd computer for the office with half this build.
My 2 mains concerns are
Thank you in advance.

My 2 mains concerns are
- Being able to get 1440p 144hz, or if not what else would I need to change
- Which DDR route should I take for gaming performance or if it is even worth it between this options. I can't get another latency or other MB models. These are the ones to stick with for me.
Thank you in advance.
