I would like to thank everyone for your help as I try to put together what will probably be my last system. (I can't game forever, right?) I believe I have decided on all my components.

Since you guys all have spent alot of time with PC builds, does Newegg (and/or other retailers) usually have "Black Friday" sales significant enough for me to postpone my build till the end of the month?

For the record, here is the build that I have landed on. https://newegg.io/c56b3c80
The SDD is backlogged on Newegg so I will buy it from Amazon https://www.amazon.com/TEAMGROUP-T-Create-Creators-Graphene-TM8FPM001T0C329/dp/B0BPCGPYWJ?th=1

P.S. The only thing I'm missing is a monitor. At the risk of getting too many different opinions, can a few people recommend a monitor that will take advantage of the rig but with price as a consideration too? (Between $130-$180 hopefully) Looking at probably a 27"?

1080 vs 1140?
144MHz vs 165 or more?
IPS vs TN vs VA
Response time? (Is .5ms a big enough difference over 1ms?)
Contrast?

Just so many factors that I feel paralyzed. :(

"Black Friday" sales exist from 1 Nov, to mid January.

The question is...is your desired component on sale?
