Builds are taking around 20-25 working days at the moment, so you're probably looking at another 2-3 weeks to go.
That being said, this build is pretty unbalanced and could do with some adjustments. Fortunately you can make amendments for free before your PC goes into build without affecting your place in the queue.
If you would like some advice for adjustments please could you tell us your budget, what you are going to be using the PC for, and what monitor you are pairing this with.

Do note, since late 24th it's now on the 6th working day, not 9th, there have been 3 bank holidays in that time :) (if the site tells you it's been 9, its gotten slightly confused about said bank holidays lol)

Okay thanks, and well this is my first time building a pc and my budget is £1450 and I have already amended the ram to 3600MHz as it was lower beforehand. Thanks for replying quickly!
Also the pc will be for gaming and as such and for general use over the next 1-5 years without really needing upgrades. The monitors I’m using is a 1080p 144hertz and a 2k 60Hertz monitor.

My budget right now is 1450 but can be 1517 in a week or two. So can you give me and explanation on why this would be better? As I barely know much about pcs. Many thanks

With £1450 in mind this is where I would make a couple of alterations.
Case
LIAN LI LANCOOL 215 GAMING CASE
Processor (CPU)
AMD Ryzen 5 5600X Six Core CPU (3.7GHz-4.6GHz/35MB CACHE/AM4) Budget to go for the latest gen 6 core Ryzen CPU. The 3600 is very capable at the moment but we are starting to see games utilise more cores, COD Warzone is a good example, and it's worth noting that consoles use 8 cores at the moment, so the 5600x would be my recommendation.
Motherboard
ASUS® TUF GAMING B550-PLUS (DDR4, USB 3.2, 6Gb/s) - ARGB Ready! You ordered the top spec Gigabyte motherboard, you don't need such a high end one with the 5600x, if you were using a beefier CPU like the 5950x or 5900x we might

For starters the CPU they you chose is several generations out of date already, the 5600x is the latest generation giving you better bang for your buck

Okay so the specs above is a more balanced specs for every item and I will be able to use most of it effectively? Thanks for this explanation so using a motherboard without WiFi and using a WiFi card is easier / cheaper? Also I noticed you added 2 SSDs which I didn’t even think about and I have an external HDD if needed for storage which isn’t essential.
But you recommend using the ryzen 5 5600x instead so I wouldn’t have to upgrade anything for a while? Same with the motherboard and WAN card?
Sorry if I have many questions but you have helped a lot!

Okay so take the 5600x meaning no need for upgrades in the future and also a less overboard motherboard I mean the specs used above seems a lot better than what I choose also, is there no need for 3600MHz ram? 3200MHz is good enough?
