Go for an AMD chip, even if the performance is similar, I find the Intel chips give out way more heat

Not if you can bag a 3080 Founders edition which is £650 vs £470 on the 3070 FE so £180 difference and when your only paying £150 for the 11400F over say a £300 10700K you've already saved £150 of that.

Can you even get founders editions anymore??

If you live in Scotland the heat may not be a bad thing

I managed to get a 3080 FE a couple of weeks ago so it's definetly possible but requires some luck and preparation.
