I will recommend 4080S over 7900XTX easily because RT matter at this performance class & DLSS upscaling is superior. 16GB VRAM should be good for 4K textures, at least till PS6 launch.

But if you are thinking of buying a high end GPU, can decide to wait for RTX 5080.

Monitor - 4K 144Hz options like Samsung G7 & Gigabyte M28U costs around 40-45k, wait for upcoming sale on amazon for monitor deals

How important is ray tracing for the gaming experience?
For 1L+ GPU, very important. For anything cheaper, ignore it. Games are unoptimised, so the extra performance of 50-60k GPUs over its predecessor doesn't help at all to be able to afford RT.
 
Hello, @PunkX 75 and @OMEGA44-XT .

Considering today's date, would you recommend the same configs as above or are there any upgrades that you would recommend?
you could wait for new gpus to be properly launched soon. Might get downward pricing pressure.
Its just rumours now but 9070xt might have good performance at good price and good vram, might trigger price reductions from nvidia too although high tiers wont have competition this time from amd.
