New gaming PC spec

Hi all,

I'm looking to purchase a new desktop Pc and, after reading in this forum for a bit, i came up with this spec.
Would really love some reccomendations.

For reference, i will be using this PC mainly to play games (AAA games) and watching films. Not planning to OC.
Would like to play in 4k at over 100FPS (where possible).

I have an old-ish 2k monitor but i would like to upgrade to something like a 32 4k OLED.
Budget is £3k max (excluding monitor)

Here is the spec i came up with:

I will probably end up going for the 9800 version of the CPU once it's back in stock.
Main question i have is around the case, RAM and Motherboard as i literally don't know the diifference between the various options (i chose these because it got recommended for a similiar spec to mine on the forum before, but some of them might be overkill?)

Thanks in advance for any tip!!
