I will finally be upgrading from my 2012 3770k build in the next few weeks. This is the part list I have put together, any suggestions? (Mainly used for gaming, media consumption and some light work)

CPU - RYZEN 7 3800X
RAM - 32GB G.Skill F4-3600C16Q-32GTZN
MOBO - Aorus X570 AORUS MASTER
GPU - 1080ti Hybrid FTW3 (from my current build)
PSU - LEADEX TITANIUM 750W
M.2 SSD 1 - AORUS NVMe Gen4 SSD 2TB (OS / Games)
M.2 SSD 2 - FORCE MP510 (Downloads / Backups)
CASE - MESHIFY C BLACKOUT
AIO Cooler - HYDRO SERIES H115I PRO RGB
140MM FANS - ML140 PRO LED WHITE 140MM (x4)
120MM FAN - ML120 PRO LED WHITE 120MM (x1)
 
Just 40 quid more, I know, but the 3700x would be a nice choice to save 40 quid, without losing cores or noticeable performance.
Storage, the Samsung 970evo are very fast and noticeable cheaper than the PCI-E 4 alternative. Another few quid saved there. The money saved, put aside, or together with your actual GPU and a possible upgrade, but a 1080ti still strong, so not much point upgrading, just yet.

Go for the H115i Platinum RGB one mate (I don't think you meant this model), I use one with the Corsair Commander and all of the other bits such as the RGB box and extra ML fans, the cooler is fantastic and the fans are so quiet. The 1080ti is still plenty completely agree with Michael and save some money on a cheaper SSD, I use 8 solid states currently in an Icybox and tbh they are all quick enough, never noticed a difference between them. Have tried an NVME one also in a friends build and personally I couldn't tell a difference. If you want to run multiple ML fans you should defo be getting the Commander mate.

Have you seen this case?

Might suit RGB elements more you plan on putting in.

My basket at Overclockers UK:
Total: £99.05 (includes shipping: £11.10)​

I am actually avoiding RGB fans, I did cost comparison and even with the H115i Platinum + included fans and the commander controller works out £100 more.

That case looks quite similar to the Meshify C, which I still prefer.
 
The 3800x is only about 2% better than the 3700x in gaming and in would personally get the 3700x. Up to you if the £40 is worth the extra 2%.

32Gb ram is overkill for what you are doing. A good 3200cl14 16Gb kit would be cheaper and serve you better. If you buy a b-die kit then you you can OC to at least 3600 and maybe even 3800.

A set of Crucial Ballistix Sport LT E-Die will cost half the price of Samsung B-Die.
 
Would drop to x570 Aorus Ultra or Pro is WiFi isn't needed.
Going master the. I'd be slamming in 12+ cores and 4000hz of ram down clocked with tight timings. Or get your ram to 3700hz
