@AdrFar few additional questions;

What is your budget
What does the above spec come too?
Can you include the configurable link in the above post.
What monitor are you going to be using with this rig (resolution and refresh rate as a minimum if you're unsure of the monitor itself)
Any specific reason you've gone with an intel CPU?

@AdrFar few additional questions;
I don't have a specific budget £3500 maybe, idk. I've included the configurable link fell free to have a look, the monitor is there as well ( I think the refresh rate is 144). I went with an intel CPU because I thought those are the best or good I have no intel about others ( I'm not very good at this)

You must have an upper limit to what you want to spend? Or would £4000 be ok (not trying to sound like I'm being condescending or anything, but everyone has a max that they'd like to spend)

Do you have any answers to the other questions?

It's because you didn't put the full spec on the thread, just in your link (y)

Combined with this monitor:

Samsung G9 Odyssey
That monitor is way above my budget limit tbh, I want that GPU bacause as far as I know is
Is there a particular reason you want a 3080 GPU? Given you have gone for a 1080p monitor? A 3080 would be massively over even for a 240Hz monitor much less a 144Hz one.
That monitor is way above my budget limit tbh, I want that GPU bacause as far as I know is really good( from what I know so far, I might be wrong). Any other monitors that are not so far away from my budget ( for a monitor) that can manage that GPU ? Basically I need a monitor that can support that GPU?

Yes, if you don't get a 4K 144Hz monitor or a superwide 49 inch 1440p monitor, you're essentially wasting that card's power as it'll effectively be throttled by the screen. It won't perform any better than the upcoming 3060 (which will be significantly cheaper).

The GPU fits the monitor, if they’re not compatible, you could have the best gpu in the world and it would perform no better than an entry level gpu.

How is that monitor above your budget limit though? You said " I don't have a specific or fixed budget " then mentioned £3500....the system I specced above combined with the monitor would come in at £3750 or so. So what you are saying is that you have no budget for the system but have a maximum for how much you are willing to spend on a monitor?

So what is your maximum for spending on a monitor? £500? £250? £100? It's impossible to recommend without a budget, especially on a monitor
Right so, I didn't put it right ( my mistake, I'm not really good at this ) I don't have a specific budget BUT I don't wanna go further then 3,500 if that makes any sense. But pcspecialist they don't have Odyssey 9 on the website and I want to buy everything I need from them because they offer the possibility to pay monthly ( that's the only way I can afford to buy and pay at the moment) and I don't wanna pay more than £100 / month for 48 months I don't mind. The specs you told me are really nice and good and I like it but I don't know what to do with the monitor because G9 alone is £1,290 and I can't afford to pay that much in one go. If you have any ideas in happy to listen. So sorry if I confused anyone.

PCS don't stock any suitable monitors for the 3080, the max they go up to is 1440 ultawide 120Hz which would fit the 3060ti and is just under £1000

If that’s what you’re set on you’re probably best waiting for the 3060Ti/3070 to be released and going with the ASUS 34" ROG SWIFT CURVED PG349Q

We have to point out the realities of getting finance as well, if you're not paying it back interest free in the 12 month window, you need to fully understand the commitment you're making.

1/. You have to be over 18 and with a healthy credit rating to qualify for credit.

2/. A credit application will perform a hard credit check which will reduce your credit rating if it's successful or not.

This would be the amount you'd be commiting to on a £3500 outlay:


Representative Example:
Buy Now Pay Later (12 Months / 60)
Price: £3,500.00
Deposit: £35.00
Total Amount of Credit: £3,465.00
Interest Rate: 11.24% Fixed
Deferred Period: Nothing to pay for 12 months (If you pay off the remaining balance of £3,465.00 during this period no interest will be charged, however a one-off early settlement fee of £29.00 will apply).
Monthly Instalments: 48 instalments of £112.74 per month.
Representative APR: 16.9 % APR Representative
Total Charge For Credit: £1,946.52
Balance Payable: £5,411.52
Total Amount Payable (Inc. Deposit): £5,446.52
