So this is now what I've got with addition of 3070, waiting till October, thanks for the help everyone would it be worth getting the 3600x for £10 more? Or does it not make any difference?

Not when you consider the 3600 is a £180 CPU - but the rest of the kit is spot on (can't say anymore than that - forum rules).

But, OcUK will hopefully have a sale on the 3600 leading up to 4000 launch - if not get the 4600(sic) if released by then as it will probably be a similar price.
 
I think i might have to come back and revisit this topic in October so much stuff being released

What are your thoughts on b550 vs x570 motherboards?

Middle to top end have been designed better. Even managing 3x m.3 slots running pice 4.0 speeds along with GPU at half speed 4.0 (equals full speed 3.0). But still has the weak link between Chipset and CPU .

Then x670 will roll out as well. For example. B550 master beats £700 x570 Xtreme in design , now picture what the Master/Xtreme X670 is gonna look like.. bit heavy £££

Good to wait, as long as your finger is on the order button when Pre-order/in stock launches !

And also hope for PSU. Corsair EU managed to grab lots of Stock compared to other regions

I'm just hoping all the new releases bring a few prices down plus more time to save

If x670 boards cost more like b550 then should see x570 hold prices.
Current gen GPUs should drop but RTX 3*** will rise as guessing pound will drop value/dollar increase after Election and then demand for the GPU.

AMD might off some droppage but guessing they'll be in Huge demand for ....mining ..
