If you get suuuuuuuuuuuuuuper lucky (< 1% chance) you can actually get a 3080, and if you want to buy it scalped it will likely not fit your budget. i would recommend getting a cheap temp gpu and once you can actually get a 3080 msrp then get it.

Instead of getting two 2x8 ram kits, I would just go for one 2x16 kit, which saves you money on price per gigabyte.

Also you will need a 10700 (non-f) to use integrated graphics until you get your 3080

For now I was still planning on using my 1080 that I have in my current computer, until I can get a new decent GPU for MSRP

I'll take a look at the RAM, but for now I'm planning on using my curent 1080 founders edition until I can get a new decent GPU for MSRP
