First computer, help needed

Hey this is my very first time trying to put a pc together, and I am still very confused, so would love some help to make it even better.
So first off, I want to clear something up. I am from Denmark, but there isn’t a forum, so this is my best option, I hope you still will help. I will write the price in both DKK (kr) and GBP (£).

I will mostly play modded Minecraft and sims, but I also want to try and begin playing other games such as CS: GO, and GTA 5.
My budget is around kr 10000 - kr 13000 without a monitor. Around £1156 - £1503
With the monitor I think I am mostly going for a 1080p 144hz, the one I have been looking at is Asus TUF Gaming VG279QL1A 27” but would love to hear some recommendations.

Made a couple of changes for you

Changed the case, as the one you chose had 3 default intake fans and no exhaust fans. The one I have chosen has 2 intake and 1 exhaust.
Someone with more experience may be able to suggest a better case, without adding additional cost, but I wanted to keep the build in budget as much as I could.

The Motherboard you chose I would say was over specced for your requirements, have therefore Tuf 550 plus, which should be more than enough for you.

Have chosen normal RAM as opposed to ARGB RAM, basically to keep the build within budget.

Gone for a Samsung 500gb 970 Nvme drive as your system drive, whilst not the fastest, this is about 6 times faster than the SSD drive you had chosen. In addition I've added a 1TB PCS Nvme drive, for storing your games and programs on, and kept the 1TB Seagate hard drive, just for any file storage, ie photo's, documents etc.

Have upped your PSU from a 450CV to a 750 RMx. This allows for future expandability, but also means that your PSu want be running at near capacity, which should help with longevity and reliability. I would have liked to go for the 850 RMx, but budget constraints meant going for the 750.

I've kept the standard cooler for the 5600x. Again I would have liked to go for liquid cooling with the Coolermaster 240, but trying to keep within budget, and the standard cooler should be sufficient for your needs. If you decided to go for the liquid cooler, dropping the mechanical drive, would mean that the price would be £14 more than the build I've suggested.

Don't think I've changed anything else, I've left the SD card reader in as I presume this is something you want. Think the total cost in Danish Krona is 13002.

I'm sure the monitor guys will be around to give you their suggestions shortly
