Flash bios via USB and overclock to keep toe to toe with more expensive 5600x
Dropping in 4000d helps save cash !

If RGB is your style , also 16gb fine for gaming. Ditch the two drives and straight in for 2tb m.2

For a tenner more the 11600KF definetly makes sense and I'd also check out the new B560 boards which can be picked up for as little as 100 quid while providing PCIe gen 4.0 support and memory overclocking.

If you wanted to save even more the 11400F is an exellent choice for just £150 or the non F version if you need an igpu for £170
 
Thanks guys, going with this setup..

etting the PSu, ram and fan’s elsewhere, going to go with EVGA 850w GA, 32gb 3600mhz ram, and probably some noctuas, 2 x 140mm for the front case and a 120mm for the rear.

keeping it black as possible. Not crazy on the rgb for this build. :)

UD can take 3 m.2 , one being PCIe 4 in the future with 11600k which is slightly more but offset by cheaper board
 
Not geting pcie4 is a mistake imo when buying a decent system while not really any benefits at the moment gives you that capability.

11600k or kf version is the way to go with a pcie4 motherboard.
