you forgot to add case fans to the build list there Hellfire.
otherwise the only fans that'll be in that system will be on the radiator.

other than that, the build above is as good as any I guess.

I would personally spend less money on flashy stuff and cut a corner here and there on a couple of things to get a 2080 Ti, but that's just me.

Case fans can be added any time with the list. Focus is on major parts.
Since the resolution is 1080p and OP is averse to upgrading that anytime soon, a 2080 Super is more than sufficient. But heres the 2080ti build, for the heck of it...
