Can this be better for the price, or cheaper in any areas?

Hello,

I've been looking at a build like this for quite a while now, I'm just struggling to want to pay that price.

I would like it for gaming, of course at the best quality possible. I will be looking at getting 1440p monitors elsewhere too.

Are there any parts which may be overkill or small changes that could help drop the price? (also not sure on whether or not the case is suitable)

This build saves you £600 and is better in several areas. A 5900x will be better for gaming. A 3070 is a good match for 1440p - you could even drop to a 3060Ti. I have changed the storage and cooling, upped the PSU, added a WIFi card and Silver warranty.
