Hi, What is it you plan on using the PC for - gaming? streaming? It would help to know. Also do you have a set budget - is this over budget, under?

In general, you would get a more cost effective version from one of the AMD configurators, here: https://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/computers/amd-am4-gen3-pc/.

Not only are their CPUs better performing for the cost, they come with a built in cooler that's pretty decent. Certainly, you should think about a better PSU, to allow for graphics upgrades down the line. If you do go for a Corsair cooler then skip the Arctic paste, the Corsair coolers come with good paste ready applied.

I intend to use it for gaming and VR and my Budget is preferably less than £1500 but I'm ok with it being no more than £15 over budget. The £1500 includes monitor etc.

We can do much better with an AMD build, for VR you need a minimum of a 2060 Super, but preferably a 2070 Super.

This is just over but 1440p screen and 2070 Super for VR:
