Looks great man just a few things that'll save you a couple £

No need to change from standard thermal paste, PCS use a good quality paste so the standard is fine

Unless you're planning to do high end sound production or design the standard sound cards on motherboards these days are really good, you don't need a dedicated sound card anymore

Anti-Virus software is basically malware these days, Windows Defender is as good as any of them and it's free with windows so I wouldn't add another Anti-Virus

Other than that it's a very strong build
 
Agreed unless your using high end audio software theres really no point having a dedicated soundcard for gaming also no need for norton windows defender is good enough with the savings you could go for a nvidia 3070 or a m2 drive to keep your operating system on

In addition to the @SlimCini has asked.

what games you planning on playing?

for the vast majority of games 16gb is sufficient, things like MSFS 2020 work better with 32GB.

Also be aware there is an ongoing potential issue with 4 x 3600 sticks with Asus boards / AMD.

if you need 32GB, I would drop it to 3200mhz.
