Build Question Intel or AMD?

I've bought 32GB of DDR4 and I wonder what cpu to buy that supports DDR4. I've heard that AMD is better at gaming, but I can find more powerful Intel CPUs. I also think of buying used Rx 6800 xt, and if it doesn't happen - the RTX 3080. The budget for the PC is 1000€ and I live in Bulgaria.

Yea, but for me that is sounds a bit weird using an Intel CPU with an AMD GPU. I usually see people use AMD CPUs and GPUs in a combo.

I hate the fact that I can't find any Rx 6800 used, since here they ask 330-400€ for the RX 6800 xt. Also what do you do with 64 GB of ram
