Could you please edit to include the "Unique Configurable URL" from the post to forum page? Makes it easier for us to go in and amend if needed rather than doing the whole configurator. Thank you

To know if this is a good spec for your needs or not, we need the following information:

- Maximum budget? Helps to know if there is any room to upgrade things
- Any other uses to take into account? Editing? Streaming? things like that

Let us know the above and we can advise appropriately. The one thing that springs to mind is that the 3080 is just wasting money with those monitors....you'd be luck to use like 25% of a 3080s capacity running 1080p ones....even the 3060Ti that's coming would be over-powered

Given the editing etc, I'd want a better CPU. If it was me, I'd jiggle things around a little (have left the 3080 assuming you realise that a monitor appropriate to that card is going to be getting on for £1k):
