750W power supply is more then enough for a 2080ti and a ryzen 3900x and everything else you need in a PC.

Will this PC run FS19 on the highest setting with 50 to 80 mods? I am concerned of the 3.0 cpu speed. Also of the power supply capacity since it doesn’t say what it comes with. Any help/advice on this platform would be helpful. Thanks!

Yes, that will run just about anything you throw at it. It’s a core i9, and the 3.0 is just the base, it boosts much higher. Plus a 2070 super is, well, super powerful

As far as laptop vs desktop, that is going to depend on how you want to play it. If you only play at your house, then a desktop would be the better option. However, if you're away from home quite often, then a laptop would be more suitable, though you could opt for a mini-itx desktop since it's similar in size to a console.

It would also help to include a budget, that way so we're not recommending you stuff that you can't afford.

My budget would be around $1350 cad, with a laptop you really can't upgrade anything, so i'm kinda in favor of a PC and off topic, with
a monitor i would be able to connect a Nintendo Switch to it as i don't own a TV.

Alright, I can work with that, as far as the pc itself, are you looking for a pre-built or to build it yourself?

To answer your monitor question, as long as the monitor has an HDMI slot, you should be able to use it for your switch.

Picking out the parts is honestly the hardest part, putting it together is easy as heck, especially with the amount of tutorials out on YouTube.

If your budget isn't completely set, as in, you can wiggle it a bit, this may be a decent list of parts for you then; https://pcpartpicker.com/list/XtWrV7. However, if you absolutely can not go above your budget, I can edit the list a bit.

That's in us$, unfortunately in CAD$ it's too high for me. I'm sure I can tweak it and match it to what you would tweak How do I do it so my post is separate from the quote.

Sometimes it can be a little weird with how it tries to set up the quote blocks though.

As far as the list goes, that's the reason why I said if you had a little wiggle room, if I recall it was about 150 cad over your budget. Tweaking can certainly be done, more or less on the motherboard, psu and case selection, it's a start though. You could also probably change out the 2060 super for the original 2060 and that would also bring the cost down a bit. You'll probably also notice I left out the OS, simply because it's not actually a necessity if you don't mind a watermark on the wallpaper, otherwise you can find the OS pretty cheap online.

Here's what i tweaked,https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/98Xn7T
What i can do is use Memory Express and do a price match, should be cheaper
