>>106253785 is a more solid build than what tyou originally had. A general rule of thumb for gaming PCs regardless of budget, is to dedicate ~50% of it to the GPU alone and then put the rest into a platform that simply won't bottleneck it.

Also comes out to a little less than ~$1200 w/o monitor using the older but still good Raptor Lake i5 w/cheap DDR4 RAM for added savings that I reinvested into a 5070 which is a huge step-up for FPS. Keep in mind Nvidia is planning to update it and the rest of the 5000 series in a matter of month with more VRAM which will be useful @ 1440p alledgely for the same price because of how slow the sales of the vanilla 5000 cards have been:

You can save a good bit on the monitor as well with this similar-spec one after coupon code (the extra 60Hz isn't worth another $80 IMO):

I personally don't think any 1440p Fast-IPS should be sold for more than $200 in 2025, and if they are they should be 4K instead.

Let us know if your $1.2K budget should really be including the monitor instead of adding it separately too and further changes can be made accordingly.
