Seems like I've chosen a shit generation to build a rig. Few components at proper prices, Intel CPUs are unimpressive and no GPU of any quality available anywhere. I might just wait for the next iteration of chipsets and components instead at this rate. By that time there might be more to choose from in way of displays as well, my preferred specs are available only in a very limited number of panels today.

It's mainly why I'm holding off until next year, because last yr and this yr are quite crap for prices and component choices.

Hopefully by next year we'll see DDR5 taking off more, GPU supply and new chips aplenty (big hope for the latter). 

Yeah, lots of converging factors causing a wide range of issues. I mean, look at the stock situation for the PS5 and Xbox Series X as well, the whole market is just a mess right now. I can wait, it'll be an insane upgrade at any rate!
