Personally my experiences rank (best to worst)
This is the general trend in my roughly two decades of having my own PCs, so your mileage may well vary, especially since some series of both CPUs and GPUs were just better/more compatible with each other than now or the other way around.
In case anyone's curious, my current combo is Ryzen 7 3800X and RTX 3060.
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
