Unfortunately you've posted up a screenshot rather than the actual link. It's a pain to have to type it out but have done it below.

Again, unfortunately, the budget doesn't appear to cover what you are looking for. Is £1400 your spend limit? The 5600X would be a far better fit at this level.

Sorry My bad I’ve copy and pasted it below now. And yes my budget will be around £1.5k including the monitor and kbm.
