If you're at all interested in a Hackintosh build (modern performance for a lot less money than what Apple charges), you have to go with AMD graphics cards.
I built a high-end gaming machine about a year ago (Intel 8700k, Nvidia 2080TI). While its an extremely good machine, I find that I absolutely detest Windows, even for gaming. Its unusable for me for doing development work.
The hardware I picked, with the exception of the 2080TI, were oriented towards being Hackintosh compatible. That mainly includes the motherboard and cpu. I'm now contemplating purchasing a top of the line AMD gpu and moving ahead with the Hackintosh project. Another benefit to doing that switch is that the AMD products are a hell of a lot cheaper than Nvidia's while offering very competitive performance.
