I'm looking to upgrade my gaming setup since my current PC is about 15 years old. I've got my sights set on a 240Hz 1440p monitor, and I'm wondering if a budget of £2000 is sufficient to build a gaming PC that can hit 240fps. I know the current market isn't the best for building, so I'm also weighing whether it might be better to wait for prices to drop. Any tips or advice on this would be greatly appreciated as I'm not very familiar with PC building!

Honestly, hitting 240fps at 1440p on a £2000 budget is going to be tough. I’ve got a setup with a 3080 and while I'm thrilled with my dual 1440 120Hz monitors, I can typically only hit about 120fps on medium to low settings for modern games. I think your budget might fall short unless you're just planning to play really old games. You might want to try PCPartPicker to plan effectively.
So, should I skip the 1440p monitor altogether?
