Money isn't an issue for this one purchase.. but I don't want to buy something that I might regret a few months down the line when the next iteration that comes is better and cheaper.  Then if I do move forward with the the 30 series the 2080ti resell value would basically nosedive.  For instance, I buy the 2080 ti I'm eyeing.. it'll run close to $1600.  How likely would this $1600 gpu resell for with a cheaper, better, and more powerful card in the market? The only real value I have at the moment with the 2080ti is wanting the ray tracing in some of the games I'm playing; Minecraft, metro, rdr2, modern warfare.  One thing I'm starting to realize building my PC was a continued wanting of bigger and better.  

I thought RDR2 on PC didn't have ray tracing ... 

If you're going to have regrets then money obviously is an issue since you care about the resale value ... 

There's nothing anyone can do about that here since as hardware ages it'll inevitably lose it's value. The best thing you can do to defend value/future proofing would be is to wait it out and just ride out on the advances chip technology and then buy into the upgrade cycle whenever you feel the time is right ...
