Thanks so much THE_SCOTSTER! Did think about theAnother option with fully fledged RGB loveliness...
Cheaper motherboard as you don't really need the Strix
I've dropped the Wifi as the AX200 is out of stock so you are better to buy this on your own and fit it. £80+ for a Wifi card is ridiculous.
The above changes allowed for all the RGB you could want within the same budget (Save £20 for the wifi).

probably better to jump to the 2x4TB ironwolves so as to kee the 7200RPM speed then?The 2070 Super is more powerful than the 5700 XT but it's a fair crack more expensive so that's entirely up to you. Both cards are aimed at high end 1440p gaming.
For professional applications I always prefer NVidia, as the software applications themselves often prefer NVidia. However, feel free to do your own research here to see what level of utilisation you will get from the 5700 XT vs the 2070 Super.
That build is both stunning and incredibly purposeful so I think you have just about cracked it.
I'm still not convinced on the storage (2x 2TB drives seems a waste) but this is always a personal choice. I would weigh up the costs of the 3TB drives, just as a small bump, as they remain 7200RPM for a reasonably affordable price bump.
So, case-wise?
FNATIC with Frstflow 240? or..
CORSAIR OBSIDIAN SERIES™ 500D SE CASE with H115i?

Corsair H115i RGB PLATINUM CPU Cooler, orThe H115i is considerably better IMO. It's a better cooler and it's almost completely silent. I wouldn't restrict myself to the FNATIC options. You can get the same look with the 500D SE case with the H115i (It has full RGB for the fans and the cooling plate).
Not convinced the Ironwolf drives are worth the money personally. Hence why I said 2x3TB standard drives
