Already ordered and just wanted someone to give it the once over.
Planning on getting a 4k monitor, at the moment only using a couple of 1080p ones.
Budget wise I'm pretty much at the limit, but I could throw an extra £100 or so if its essential.
Primary use is pretty much just going to be gaming.

Appreciate any advice you guys can give, thanks in advance!

A decent m2 drive for the OS would be good, Samsung are excellent. Plus upgrade the wifi, the 2.4GHz is not great.

A fiver for Silver Warranty is worth it.

I’d just recommend for you to upgrade the wifi card to the AX200 and put the warranty to the Silver Warranty as its only an extra £5 and is well worth, just as Stephen said. An extra £16 in total both of these upgrades - other than that, PC is looking sweet.

Just to interject here, I hope you’ve got about £800 or so as the budget for the 144Hz 4K monitor you’ll need to make full use of the 3080?

Your motherboard is overspecced, as is the RAM unless you’re using flight simulators or streaming.

We could optimise this spec a bit more, to be honest 🙂👍

Thanks for the recommendations, I'll definitely make a few changes based on what you guys have suggested.
As for monitor AGENTCOOPER, I'm sure by the time I actually get a 3080 allocated to my build I'll have enough to buy a decent 4k one :p

Or you could just live the dream and get yourself a Samsung G9...
