Heavy server config

I've got a decent GPU in my existing build (2070 Super) which is an intel build, and I've decided it's time to up the game and practice as i preach and go AMD, so it was the logical way to do things, I've also specced the new build so it will have an extremely good upgrade path
For the next build im looking more to a VM hosting/Render farm using Hyper V, so Would be hoping/Praying to the gods I can get hold of 3 or more 2080's but mite push the boat out if I was offered 3080's for a reasonable price of 1100 (ya in my dream's that I could them at that price).

3080's retail for £800, so 1100 even at the moment is perfectly doable brand new.

It would be nice if I could buy all three from the same vendor :) I did a quick basic config build:

Case
CORSAIR iCUE 5000X RGB MID TOWER GAMING CASE
Processor (CPU)
AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3970X 32 Core CPU (3.7GHz - 4.5GHz, 147MB CACHE)
Motherboard
ASUS® ROG ZENITH II EXTREME ALPHA (DDR4, Wi-Fi 6, CrossFireX/SLI) - ARGB Ready!
Memory (RAM)
64GB Corsair VENGEANCE RGB PRO DDR4 3200MHz (4 x 16GB)
Graphics Card
1GB NVIDIA GEFORCE 710 - DVI, HDMI, VGA
1st Storage Drive
8TB Samsung 870 QVO 2.5" SSD, SATA 6Gb/s (up to 560MB/sR | 530MB/sW)

Get Resident Evil Village with select Samsung SSDs

2nd Storage Drive
8TB Samsung 870 QVO 2.5" SSD, SATA 6Gb/s (up to 560MB/sR | 530MB/sW)
3rd Storage Drive
14TB SEAGATE IRONWOLF PRO 3.5", 7200 RPM 256MB CACHE
4th Storage Drive
14TB SEAGATE IRONWOLF PRO 3.5", 7200 RPM 256MB CACHE
1st M.2 SSD Drive
4TB CORSAIR MP400 NVMe PCIe M.2 SSD (up to 3480 MB/R, 3000 MB/W)
2nd M.2 SSD Drive
4TB CORSAIR MP400 NVMe PCIe M.2 SSD (up to 3480 MB/R, 3000 MB/W)
3rd M.2 SSD Drive
4TB CORSAIR MP400 NVMe PCIe M.2 SSD (up to 3480 MB/R, 3000 MB/W)
Power Supply
CORSAIR 1600W PRO SERIES™ TITANIUM AX1600i DIGITAL MODULAR PSU
Power Cable
1 x 1 Metre IEC C19 UK Power Cable
Processor Cooling
CoolerMaster MasterLiquid ML360 RGB TR4 High Performance Liquid Cooler
Thermal Paste
ARCTIC MX-4 EXTREME THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY COMPOUND
Sound Card
ONBOARD 6 CHANNEL (5.1) HIGH DEF AUDIO (AS STANDARD)
Network Card
10/100/1000 GIGABIT LAN PORT
Wireless Network Card
NOT REQUIRED
USB/Thunderbolt Options
MIN. 2 x USB 3.0 & 2 x USB 2.0 PORTS @ BACK PANEL + MIN. 2 FRONT PORTS

Most of the cost here is storage and CPU but this would leave me with about 4000 for GPUs. But first I would like my laptop to arrive soon so i can make a bit of the money up and sort out any issues it mite have before starting the wait process for the above build.

You might actually be better off looking for a rack/server solution if that’s the long term plan, contact @richard_pcs if you want any advice for that kind of setup.
