So long as you don't try to use it on the old PC, then yes, you can transfer it.

It's a really good build, really the only areas I can see improvement worthwhile is the M2 drives.

I'd look at at least upping the primary drive to a Samsung 980 pro, they're significantly faster and Windows 11 will make use of that speed.

If you have any budget left over, then perhaps look at upgrading the secondary M2 drive as well.

Finally arrived and all set up and at the moment working as intended but a bit hot due to the bloody weather so impressed with the looks and how it plays thanks for all the help with the components

Just so you know, there's a section missing from the to do list...

We would like pictures please 🙂 cable management is optional.
 
The 3070 is arguably the better card, and for some reason it is currently £4 cheaper than the 6700XT! 😮

3070 is top end 1440p, 6700XT is mid/upper range 1440p. 3070 will also have better ray tracing capability and encoding should you wish to stream your gameplay.

EDIT - note to self: make a point of reading the question before you provide an answer.
I dunno why but I read it the same aswell
