Hi there! Some ways we could optimise this a bit. What would be super helpful is the green configuration link that would be found at the bottom of where this text was copied from. It makes it a lot easier to suggest recommendations, once we have that we'll get to it! Thanks!

You wouldn’t need to overclock the 5600X, the processor has a built in frequency boost which will allow the chip to boost.

I’ve gone a few quid over but I think this would be a decent option for you…

Brilliant build from AC as always! Just thought I'd mention, if/ when you get that 3070, make sure you get an appropriate 1440p 144hz monitor to pair with it, you'll want to make sure you're making the most of it's performance!
