So the choice is as follows, doesn’t included licenses / CPU heatsink, CD-rom etc, but given budget is a good compromise I believe

That is what I am finding, prices are way to high. Anything ASUS from a gaming perspective is good, shame about the hybrid HDD /SSD but a good purchase considering the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 is worth £700 + on its own . I doubt it will be in stock anytime soon
John Lewis said they will order new stock in mid Jan 22. If price is close to that I will buy. The NVMe SSD and HDD are separate.

‘The NVMe SSD and HDD are separate’, that is much better,
Great balanced spec in my opinion
It was tricky to get a semi good gaming system for around £1000, luckily I have a few old PC’s so can scavenge Ribbons, CD drives etc if my friend needs them.
AMD definitely provided better cost savings

Got next day delivery and it got delivered in the morning.
There are actually 2 case fans. 1 x 120mm (I think that is the size) in the front and 1 x 80mm at the back.
On first start-up all the the fans are quite audible. After entering windows they are whisper quiet on idle.
Nearly damaged the front hot-swappable SSD trays. I never knew there are different sized SSD’s?
I had 2 SSD’s and the first one would not fit. Tried to jam it in and nearly damaged the SSD and the hot-swappable tray. It was near impossible to get the SSD back out. Had to use a pliers to remove.
I then tried the other SSD and it just fitted in perfectly. Lesson learnt……
