Some of you guys are spending mad money for minimal performance gains, IMO. I use an old 4th gen Intel i7/GTX 1070 and play PUBG, COD:WZ, Apex Legends on high settings at 1080p at 90+ fps.
Here's my $1k'ish build, if you buy NEW. F that. Find something similar off local craigslist that has a decent foundation (mobo and case), then swap out the rest.

I recently swapped from a GTX 1070 to the RTX 2070 Super and noticed 20 FPS better on average on 1440p. If you're playing 1080p, don't bother, you'll still get 100+ FPS with the 1070.
