Budget (including currency): 2020-45 $US (Most parts are more expensive in my country exchanged to my currency)
Country: Hungary
Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: I'm a Computer Science student, who likes to do a lot of stuff simultaneously, and would like to play some of the newest games on the highest settings...
Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc):
My old rig https://www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/32841999 (which is gonna be gifted to a family member) and the monitor I'm currently using https://eu.aoc.com/en/gaming-monitors/g2590px (keeping this one until i have money for a better one). I'm okay with my peripherals rn, no need to upgrade there...

I want this build to
last me at least 7-9 years without bigger upgrades
the case and power supply to be Be Quiet!
the CPU to be AMD
do well with renders and multi core oriented work (IDE running with emulator while there are hundreds of stackoverflow windows open, premiere pro/after effects/blender)
Stuff I need help with
is the motherboard good for the 3080? I'm still not sure about PCIe 4.0 gen, and how important that is...
the CPU, i really don't think i want to wait for the 4000 series, but I'm not sure if this gonna bottleneck the 3080
power supply... is 700W enough for me?
i don't need rgb the black edition is just more expensive so why would i buy that...
Any other tips on the build?
Other stuff:
I'm upgrading my monitor to at least to 1440p but probably gonna go with this one's 4k variant if i have the money https://evedevices.com/pages/spectrum/ (yeah i play csgo for 7 years now, i want 144hz)
I'm pretty stupid so correct me everywhere I'm wrong, thank you
