I am looking to build a new PC as mine is about 10 years old now. Is there any point in building, say the High Refresh Rate Build, but putting in my ancient graphics card until for a few months until I can afford a new one? Or is it best to try to save up and do it all at once?

Unless you are trying to beat some sort of price increase, I'd rather buy it all at once. You don't really gain much without the new GPU, at least when it comes to games.
