1440p Gaming spec check?

[adamnodder]

Hi, Been thinking about getting a 1440p spec gaming pc could someone let me know if this seems a good build? Ive done alot of research and this is what ive come up with. Advice would be much appreciated.
Also a few items on my spec seem to be pre order basis... Any ideas on time when they would be in stock as i know there is a big shortage on components at the minute. Also i probably wouldn’t choose this particular case i was going to wait until better cases are back in stock. Thanks.

Looks pretty good, what's the budget?

couple of things I would say, change the Wi-Fi card to the AX200, it is more modern & also includes bluetooth and it's only £19

Do away with Bullguard, the built in windows defender is all the AV you need and it's free

Yes definitely not that case, it has a reputation of being a hot box, the next case up would be a better bet in that range of what's available

Thankyou, budget would be around £1800 mark. What case would you suggest? Also is there much difference in gaming when it comes to ryzen 5 or 7?

Ok, I've updated your spec to include a better case which brings the price to £1,868.00, with regards ti Ryzen 5 or 7, for most gaming needs the 5 is pretty much the CPU of choice for gaming, the 7 maybe put into builds that are going to be used for video editing as well
