Here is a complete build:


Total is around 2.3L. I have chosen the 7900XT, which will give you decent 4K performance, with 20 GB of VRAM. It's as fast as a 4070Ti Super in Rasterization. I don't know if you prefer RT.

Since this is a gaming system, the 7800X3D is king here. If you scale down to 1440p, your gaming experience will be better.
 

I will recommend 4080S over 7900XTX easily because RT matter at this performance class & DLSS upscaling is superior. 16GB VRAM should be good for 4K textures, at least till PS6 launch.

But if you are thinking of buying a high end GPU, can decide to wait for RTX 5080.

Monitor - 4K 144Hz options like Samsung G7 & Gigabyte M28U costs around 40-45k, wait for upcoming sale on amazon for monitor deals
 
Thank you @PunkX 75 and @OMEGA44-XT for the configs! Sorry for the super late reply. Was busy with work.

Is there any place I can look for benchmarks of both the GPUs to check which one would be better?

Hardware Unboxed youtube channel is my top pick but there are many other sources like Tom's Hardware mentioned earlier.
 
How important is ray tracing for the gaming experience?

For 1L+ GPU, very important. For anything cheaper, ignore it. Games are unoptimised, so the extra performance of 50-60k GPUs over its predecessor doesn't help at all to be able to afford RT.
 
Daniel owen on youtube does extensive and great comparisons you should look him up too.
