Hi, what's your max budget?

That is my budget for now but could be able to save a bit more £4000 max but for that I could get the 4090?
So, your current budget is £3500? This is what I'd buy for your needs.

As for the 4090, I think the price is insane for a gaming GPU.
A 4080 SUPER is fully capable of handling the necessary VR, but if you want to pay a further £650... :)

Thanks for the reply Ekans2011,
The CORSAIR iCUE 5000T CASE I like the look of and would like to keep.
As for the SSD choice, that seems a much better option.
