For LLMs it entirely depends on what size models you want to use and how fast you want it to run. Since there's diminishing returns to increasing model sizes, i.e. a 14B model isn't twice as good as a 7B model, the best bang for the buck will be achieved with the smallest model you think has acceptable quality. And if you think generation speeds of around 1 token/second are acceptable, you'll probably get more value for money using partial offloading.
If your answer is "I don't know what models I want to run" then a second-hand RTX3090 is probably your best bet. If you want to run larger models, building a rig with multiple (used) RTX3090 is probably still the cheapest way to do it.
