Reduce my expensive build. Advice plz

a couple of years ago you would be able to get a 3080 new for your £410 easy by now. i hope one day things correct themselves but i doubt they will. i think they may get worse.

Ask yourself this, is spending nearly 100% more going to give you 100% more performance or 20-30%, vs spending that same amount in a couple of years where it will give you more like 60-100%, so over the life of the system you end up having something faster for more of the time.

I think that argument could be applied to anyone buying in the top bracket tier. I'd bet performance per pound is pretty rubbish on the 4090. I mean yeah it'll give you top tier performance but you've definitely got to pay for it.
 
I have one last question on Ram. i originally wanted 64gb as it would be better for video editing and Zbrush work. however i am coming round to the idea of getting 32gb Team Group RAM but the faster CL30 6000mHz.

is getting TeamGroup Delta RGB 32GB (2X16GB) DDR5 PC5-44800C30 6000MHz Dual Channel Kit - Black (FF3D532G6000HC30DC01) a better choice over Kingston FURY Beast RGB 64GB (2x32GB) DDR5 PC5-44800C40 5600MHz Dual Channel Kit (KF556C40BBAK2-64)?

I've also now have binned the NZXT AIO and am getting the 280 Arctic freezer 2 as its the quietest and best at cooling, the noise with the NZXT pump would drive me mad.
i am also getting the MSI MPG A1000G PCIE5 UK PSU 1000W 80 Plus Gold Power Supply which people rightly recommended as a great affordable choice.

Thanks again for everyone's help. I do appreciate it :)
