[SOLVED] Help choosing between Nvidia and AMD series card given my circumstance

Basically I am wondering wether it's better to go for a higher end 2080 or similiar Nvidia card, or a slightly lower end 5700 given that my monitor has Freesync?
Gaming at 120hz 1440p on a widescreen and generally wondering if the Freesync compatibility of the AMD would outweigh the extra general performance and price of the Nvidia alternatives?

(AMD based system /cpu if that counts to much)

for now it's best to not buy anything because the 3070, 3060 and AMD's 6000 series are a week away. better look what those look like and how much they cost and then choose what to buy

it's possible but it should be a real bargain to be worth it. for example if the 2080 is on sale much cheaper than what the 3070 is supposed to cost, then yes. if despite the discount its cost is still higher or close to the 3070 its a waste of money
