With your specific question, the difference between 3080 and 3070 for video editing is relatively small, compared to the cost difference.

But yes, do read the link @Martinr36 posted and let us know (a) budget, (b) purposes (anything other than video editing & photography?), (c) what monitor(s) you'll be using.

Please also post the link to the configurator so it's easy to modify.

I agree.the Puget benchmarking shows little difference between 3070 and 3080. Its GPU stress test benchmark shows about a 10% maximum difference, but this does not represent real world performance. I would go with a 3070 and save some money while getting the PC much faster.
