Also, the performance difference is not "negligible" between a 3060 ti and 3070. A 3070 can actually run some 4k games at playable frame rates while the 3060 ti is reserved to being a 1440p max card.
I'm not going to add to the other comments about your hardware price estimates being off the wall, but I will tell you that the 3070 is at least a 10% better GPU (some tests show 25%). That's a big deal for gamers. You're smoking crack if you think the ram makes up for that much of a difference. Buy a second 8 gbs of the same MHz ram for $30 and you'll be fine. 512gb is plenty for a main os drive, you can get an additional 1 tb ssd for $70 now (no need to reinstall windows), and it's easy to install a secondary drive. $100 additional total and you'll be good to go. That's the same price as the MSRP difference between the 3060ti and 3070 FE cards.
3080 for $200 more? That's the same retail price difference between a 3070 and 3080 so that's not a bad option at all.

Neither of these cards are 4k cards imo. And this is a budget build. You will lose 7-12% gpu performance at most which is better than the performance you'd lose form having only 8gb of ddr in single channel.
If you want it all pay the extra $200 or better yet opt for the 3080. But with this build you get a build that doesn't need upgrading immediately costing you hundreds over the initial sticker price. It will play all modern games at a good resolution and frame rate.
A 1tb NVME would cost you $200-300, and the ram another $150. And with the customer base of a prebuilt I doubt replacing parts and reinstalling windows is something they want to mess with.

Ordered this HP Envy from the deal couple days ago:
https://slickdeals.net/f/15801973-hp-envy-desktop-i5-12400-rtx-3060-ti-8gb-ddr4-512gb-pcie-ssd-thunderbolt-4-999-w-sd-cashback-free-s-h?src=SiteSearc
Got it for around 1070 shipped.
Can someone please advise if this setup is better than the Envy?

The con with this Omen is that the Ryzen CPU is highly dependent on RAM speed for performance. The Intel on the Envy doesn't really see any measurable difference in gaming performance with slower RAM. With either PC you need to double the ram to play MSFS well as it's a super resource hog.
A game like MSFS will really benefit from as much graphical horsepower as you can get. Everything else being even: the 3070 would be better (this Omen).
Knowing HP will probably tell you to pound sand when you try to cancel, the bright side is you would be able to sell the 3060 ti (still hard to find) that comes in your Envy and buy a 3070 and probably only spend around $100 net in the process to upgrade.
Or, you might just be perfectly happy with the performance of the 3060 ti and decide to keep it. That Envy overall will consume much less wattage when running games, so there's that..

Thank you for taking time! I guess I will stick with Envy, if cancellation is a pain. I have never tried that with HP before. But will take your word for it.
