I made a pc build and I was just wondering if my parts are good. I wanna know if they're not overkill-ish, if there are better or cheaper parts that I should switch out, if everything's compatible, and nothing will explode. I don't really have a budget but I'd like to stay within the range that it already is in ($3000 or so). Also, I'm gonna be using the pc for gaming, streaming, video editing, and probably school. I made this build knowing that I wanted the ryzen 7 5800x and rtx 3080 combo, and filled in everything else that would support those parts and also look aesthetically pleasing to me. Let me know if I should change anything thanks.

Looks like a solid build to me. Power supply might be a bit overkill for this system, but I'm a strong advocate of overbuying PSUs so I won't discourage you there. I'd drop that memory down to DDR4-3600 CL16 though. That's the perf/value sweetspot for Ryzen atm.
