I had went for the 3080Ti almost as a 'future proof' incase i want to upgrade the set up down the line.

Any reason for the storage adjustments? Apologises for the noob questions..

The GPU is the first thing you'd upgrade down the line you can't future proof it, you would get absolutely no benefit from it at 1440p, as far as the storage is concerned I've given you a 1TB HDD for general storage, a really fast 500GB M.2 for the OS and programs to go on, and a slightly slower M.2 for your games, so if you ever need to reinstall windows you wont need to download all your games again.
