I have posted once on this build before, but have made a number of improvements for my plan for now and the future. I do not plan to upgrade the GPU to a better one until the shortage dies down a bit, but still wanted a solid GPU for now without dropping $1500 on that alone. I already have the case, but not the other items listed. Please help me point out the details of where I am or will be bottle necked. Thanks for taking the time!

Solution
That's still a pretty potent GPU/CPU combo.
That GPU and CPU should be able to play pretty much any game on ultra at 60 fps plus.
...and on some games I think you will get a lot more fps than that.
I think that's a good GPU for 1920x1080.

Being that CPU can handle any GPU out there....the limiting factor regarding graphics and game playing is going to be the GPU.
I assumed that would be the main item not up to par with the rest. I also don't know that much about monitors as far as what is overkill and what returns benefit me aside from knowing I want an IPS panel with a solid refresh rate, response time, and aspect ratio. I also can't go much larger than 27" given my setup area.
