A lot of good things right in this build, it looks like you’ve done your research, but there are still a few areas I would change.

Before we go into them, please can you let us know your budget and use case, and add the configuration link so we can more easily make edits, and then we can see how we can optimise your build 🙂

Thanks for the response!

My budget is around £2,400 with £2,500 being my absolute limit (Including the monitor) and obviously, I'd like to save money where I can xD. For the use case, I intend on using this pc for 3d graphics related stuff and also high-end gaming.

Edit: Srry I forgot the config link lol, I believe this is it https://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/saved-configurations/amd-am4-gen3-pc/q8w!GCaQy9/
