This is the build I'd suggest for your budget. It's quite a lot under, but that could go towards your new monitor. The next reasonable upgrade I'd suggest is going 3080 but that takes it over budget by £60. You could also consider adding 16gb 3600MHz to this build which would give a minor FPS gain instead of the 3200MHz ram you currently have (takes the price to £1,988)

Re: 3070's, the wait is long, I haven't checked recently but it wouldn't surprise me if it's multiple months. I'd highly suggest trying to source your own card then removing it from the order here (which should speed it along a lot)

Edit: Just seen the monitor response. That monitor will massively bottleneck your GPU, I'd only suggest this build if you plan to upgrade to upgrade the monitor pretty soon after purchasing the PC. If not we can factor it in to the budget you have

based on 1080p. If your looking at 1440p switch to the 3060ti (3070 would be if you want overkill)

Looks a good solid build, totally agree with the comments about the GPU's (y)

The pesky penguin has nailed this one well and truly
