I built mine in 2018 when prices were also high (but not the peak I don't believe) and settled on an RX570 since I really only needed it for transcoding with Plex and because I bought a second gen Ryzen 7 that doesn't have onboard graphics. I ran that thing up until last week when I was given both a 1080 TI and a Quadro P4000 for free from two different people. Now I have more GPUs than I know what to do with. I stuck the 1080 TI in since the P4000 only had DVI outputs (though it would be the better card for Plex), but now I have the option to do a little bit of gaming if I want (mostly play console) or do PCVR with my Quest 2.
