Looks pretty nice to me.

Personally I'd swap out the m.2 SSD for a higher capacity standard sata one. Maybe a 500gb mx500 which will cost around the same price. Just as fast in actual usage. You'll soon use up 250gb.

The R7 2700 is £50 cheaper.

Gone with a slightly cheaper 3200MHz CL14 8Pack kit that you can just plug and play.

Swapped the board for a lower priced Asus ROG Strix.

Money saved can be put to a bigger 500GB NVMe SSD as below.

The Antec HCG 750W is currently at a great price so why not.
