Ryzen Build Check

So looking to replace my 3770K build with something new that will last 5-7 years like this one has.

I am keeping my 970 for the moment as want to see what happens on the AMD side and also if any drops around black friday on the nVidia side, also keeping my existing SSDs for booting etc

Does the below look good, any suggestions or tweaks?

My basket at Overclockers UK:

1 x Lian-Li PC-TU150WX Aluminium Mini-ITX Case - Black= £109.99
1 x Asus ROG Crosshair VIII Impact (AMD AM4) DDR4 X570 Chipset Mini-DTX Motherboard= £359.99
1 x AMD Ryzen 9 3900X Twelve Core 4.6GHz (Socket AM4) Processor - Retail= £559.99
1 x Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO Black 32GB (2x16Gb) 3200MHz AMD Ryzen Tuned DDR4 Memory Kit= £199.99
1 x Corsair SF Series 750W 80 Plus Platinum Modular SFX Power Supply (CP-9020186-UK)= £142.99
1 x be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 4 CPU Cooler= £84.95

Would all depend on what the machine is going to be used for mostly?

The Dark rock pro 4 does have a adjustable fan placement but just double check the ram height clearance for the corsair vengeance pro rgb

In terms of use will be for gaming, some image editing, just general use as well

Then you're over-spending on the CPU. No way you need a 3900X and you'll get similar gaming performance from a 3700X to be honest - check here
