Josh, if I'm now wanting an upgraded monitor, what should I lean towards? I know we talked upping to 1440p based on that prior build. Not sure how high a refresh rate.
Also does anyone here have thoughts on curved monitors?

ETA: I just realized you all were already discussing monitors

I would recommend going with OLED for a new monitor. I also highly recommend going with an ultrawide monitor. You can jump into a relatively cheap ultrawide oled experience with this:
Alienware 34" ultrawide
If you have more money to spend and want something bigger, I would look into the LG 45" ultragear option. I have seen it in person and it's very impressive.

Those monitors are nuts compared to what I have

Just be aware if you go with an OLED, the best conditions for gaming with OLED is in a dark environment with no light or light behind the display. The two weaknesses of OLEDs are the burn in potential (can be mitigated with proper use and maintenance) and not as bright as other panel types.

Gotcha. Is there that big of a jump from the $300 range to a $650 monitor?

Yea. There are cheaper oled monitors available, but they won't be ultrawide. and would be in the 27" size.

They are probably waiting to see what Nvidia's 50 series is priced at and what the performance looks like per sku before releasing. Which is honestly embarrassing. They claimed they were shifting strategies and were going after market share. If they are trying to price their highest end card slightly cheaper than its 50 series counter part, then they will continue to be annihilated. If they want market share they are going to have to take a haircut on their margins because their product can't compete straight up with Nvidia.

Most people are willing to pay an extra 20% or more for Nvidia, so ya. Although, Nvidia is supposedly just announcing the 5080.

If the rumors are true. The 9070 XT will be around 4070ti super to 4080 super levels of performance.
If they price it anything above $500 I don't think they can be considered serious in trying to acquire market share.

Last "leak" I saw was 5% better than 4070ti. That would've been OK at the right price.

Wow and they didn't even announce their GPUs lmao

Intel needs to accept one of the buyout offers. My God the 2XX series is so bad with no improvement from the 1XX series they've completely stalled again.
CPU market is just a total bloodbath now.

If this is actually legit it fully explains why AMD didn’t want to present anything today

There is absolutely no way that’s legit
