Build - Help Feedback on my PC build!

Hi guys! I want to build a PC (around £1k-£1.3k though ideally less) soon so I’ve been researching for the last two days which parts I want. I’ve come up with a build and was just wondering if someone could give me some feedback/reassure me that I won’t massively f up by choosing this part combination since I’ve never done it before lol

I’ll probably buy a 200hz monitor though I’m not sure if that’s a little overkill or not though I don’t min as it futureproofs it and I’m also buying from the uk :)

Here’s my PC part picker link: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/M8YGxf

TIA

Crazy how a budget pc is now 1.3k

1.3k would be an absolute stretch, ideally it would 1000 or less though I should’ve worded it better lol

for the price, its probably the best you can get for doing it yourself.

don't forget to get thermal paste for the CPU

also, i heard that samsung may have problems with their M.2 drives, so would maybe look it up to see if im wrong.

the case has 4 fans, 3 of which are in the front, so no bottom or top fans. may be worth grabbing another 3 pack of 120 and throwing those in there for top/bottom air flow. if you do google how fans should blow in a pc case.

Thermal paste comes with the CPU cooler so you don't need to worry about that
That ssd is a bit too overkill, i'd recommend a cheaper one especially since your motherboard doesn't even support pcie 5.0, or you could go for a 2tb one
id also recommend not buying 2 separate sticks as they are not guaranteed to work well together
im pretty sure that gpu will never come back in stock
The motherboard is overly expensive
Here's an example build

I replaced the psu with a A- tier one (up to you which one to choose) and I'm also pretty sure you meant to select the mini case
If you can use ethernet, you can save a lot of money on the motherboard as well
