You have almost the same setup as I do right now.
3900x and a 3080.
Took me four cpu fan switches until I could stand being in the same room. Stock fan, sounded like a drying cabinet. BeQuiet, loud. Noctua, less loud but still loud. Im using a radiator now with silentwing fans and it's still slightly too loud for my taste (and louder than any Intel I've ever had).
Temps seem to be in normal range though.

I went with idiotproof watercooling for the CPU and a mid-range quiet-type cabinet and it's whisper-quiet and well within optimal temperature range even at high load.

Watercooling: Shark Gaming BloodFreezer 120 RGB

Cabinet: Cooler Master Silencio S600
