PC Build for Blender Modeling + Rendering, Graphics Card Rec?

[Rebecca]

Below is what the PC Builder gave me, but I see that the graphics card is double the suggested price. Any recommendations for available graphics cards that are not wildly inflated?

Unfortunately, no option other than trying to find something at a better price sold by a regional/local retailer. Maybe this article will help you track one down - https://www.cgdirector.com/where-to-buy-pc-parts-cpus-graphics-cards-in-your-country/

You can try finding RTX 3080/ 3080 Ti / 3090 or AMD's Radeon 6900XT/6800XT
