I know 4090 is the best GPU u can get but i don’t think i need it and 1.7 grand for gpu not into that .
So i’ve been looking for many benchmarks for many games … they all so different. i am planing to build new gaming pc 1440p 240hz i got almost all part’s selected but the GPU is the hardest choice for me. Am looking for best 1440p GPU in market to get best performance. I m more into competitive games like LOL, CS Go , Apex , COD , RB6. I m planning to put Ryzen 9 7900x CPU what GPU would you recommend me to get best performance( highest FPS and smoothest gameplay) ?

Honestly i think i decided to go for NVIDIA for first time in my life the RT , DLLS etc are available and better than AMD , pricing looks good (not good its overpriced ) but i mean against 7900 xtx its about 1400/1500£ or 4080 rtx custom also 1300,1400£ so Fe version seems legit good and custom 4080 is maybe better in few fps and little cooler in temperature and less noise but i don’t mind it since it won’t melt or have airport sounds from PC case.

Thanks for your answer .
Already got 9 7900x and case seems normal size why wouldn’t it fit in it shows compatibility in every site i checked 4080 FE ain’t that big the custom version is gigantic that would be issue but since i go for reference card i don’t see an issue but i might be wrong . And yes it’s not only for gaming but for other work stuff that’s why i went for best possible cpu .Board will be Asus rog strix X670-E WiFi AM5
I’ll check it once more if it will fit measure the case since i have it on hand and compare to 4080 FE size i hope it fits .

btw these new 40XX cards such as the 4080 are not going to fit inside that Phanteks case. I suggest you look at a B650 board, switch up to a 7700 non X and put the savings into a decent size case. Anything outside of 8 cores / 16 threads for a gaming build is a waste of money.

ASUS ROG STRIX B650-A GAMING WIFI £287.99

NVIDIA 4080 FE The card's dimensions are 310 mm x 140 mm x 61 mm
Phanteks G360A Eclipse Graphic card length: 400 mm / 15.7 in ( 398.78mm or 39.878 cm)
By the internet provided information it will clearly fit in mate but i’ll definitely measure the case thanks for paying attention to that and making me recheck :) .
