Yeah, I agree! The components you've picked are good, but you might want to adjust your expectations for 4K gaming performance. I'd recommend checking out some benchmarks for the RX 9070 XT; it handles 1440p really well!
240Hz at 4K with an RX 9070 XT? That’s a tall order! You might not even reach 200Hz at 4K with a high-end RTX 5080. I’d consider this more of a 1440p ultra build—everything else looks solid though!
