Simply it comes down to "Need" over "Want" formula. Do you need it for your rig? If NO then does your "Want" for the card value £130? No one can tell you not to buy it as its your choice if you want for the GPU sooner rather than later and can afford it.
I really wanted to experience Cyberpunk with RTX on release so I bought a 3070, even though I have a 3080 on order. i will most likely sell my 3070 once my 3080 arrives, rather than cancelling my 3080 order now. Some people will think thats crazy, but its my choice as I am very looking forward to playing Cyberpunk and experiencing its visuals.
Thanks for the input. I have been without a GPU for about 2 months now as my 780ti dead after 6 years of faithful service. Using integrated graphics and playing old retro games has kept me sane, but I suppose it is more of a need/really really want.
However, I will be keeping both orders open until one of them arrives.
