Help with a new build

[armagedonas32]

Hello everyone, I would like to build a new computer, I prefer to buy parts and do it myself. I have monitor,keyboard and mouse. I would like to play on 2K quality - AOC Gaming CU34G2X - 34 inch WQHD Curved Monitor, 144Hz, 1ms MPRT, VA, AMD FreeSync.
I prefer Ryzen CPU and Nvidia graphic card. Also, I am not sure about my budget, do you think 1.5k is enough for 2k quality rig. I would like to use this computer for 3-5 years without upgrade. I am playing games like GTA, Day Z, Lineage 2, Scum, Counter Strike 2, NFS.

I know very little about monitors, but if you have an AMD FreeSync screen, shouldn't you be buying an AMD graphics card?

Hmm, that's true, I didn't think about Amd graphic card since the monitor is free sync, what amd graphic card would you recommend

The AMD equivalent to the 4070 is a 7800 XT, so I'd use the same spec, but just swap that.

You can use either GPU with and AMD freesync monitor

Does AMD FreeSync Work With NVIDIA Graphics Cards?

AMD FreeSync is compatible on both AMD and NVIDIA GPUs - we've put together everything you need to know and our top compatible monitors

I don't know a lot about monitors but before I upgraded a couple months ago, I was using an AMD Freesync monitor that I used on my RX580 8GB, GTX 660 2GB, 4070, and noticed no issues across the board, also to note my newest monitor is a AMD Freesync Premium monitor that secretly supports G-Sync like it's £300+ more IPS older brother in the same chassis... Despite not advertising it in the spec/on the box... Nice bonus but as I say, never had an issue using a freesync with Nvidia on either monitor
