7600 non-x is easier to cool, and minimal performance loss compared to the 7600x, no need to spend the extra on the -x version
better mobo (and cheaper too!)
better ssd (mp44l uses tlc nand, the nv3 is qlc nand)
cheaper case, cheaper cooler to fit in the power supply to budget (they're all excellent choices though, so, no compromise regardless)
if you don't mind looking around i would swap the PSU to the MSI A650BN, which is the same price as the CV550

Updated that now thanks!

Updated that now thanks!

are you planning to upgrade the gpu to something power hungry in the future?
if not, a 650w psu will be fine

something like this will shave £100 off the build cost:
