I’m sure one will pop up between the time I decide on something and start the build to completion.

dude, by the time one "pops up", a whole new generation of GPUs will be out. probably 2 generations.

you don't have the slightest idea of what's going on right now. your best bet is to just buy a prebuilt, and call it good.

I just remember the rig i built back then was on a budget and powerful enough to have fun but couldn’t run things to make the experience what i wish i could. Now it’s later in life and would like to treat myself to something with the power i wish i had then.
This was suggested to me as well. Thoughts?

This, 100%.
You can theoretically get really, really lucky and get a GPU for 2x the retail price but even that is not easy. OEMs are able to get some supply at least, and the little premium you pay for having someone else build it is way less than the extra you pay as an individual for a top GPU right now. Unfortunately nobody seems to think this will end very soon.
