Stick with Vapours build, as its superior to your choice. Although you could argue that your PSU is better.
You are lacking 6 threads using that CPU
You are using a low end Motherboard
you are using a slightly worse SSD
your hard disk is better HD (imo)
Remove AVG it is diablocal.
download COMODO for your firewall/antivirus solution

Sorry, its 3 am already. This should have complete build up. Use the standard heatsink (included), its should still sufficient until you feel otherwise. As of why R7 1700, not the newer 2700, I don't think its worth 100 pound for the performance difference. 1700 is not a bad cpu and cheap. You better off with better gpu and its only cost total 850 pound included Samsung 970 evo 250Gb which has crazy speed, 2x8Gb ram DDR4-3000 and GTX 1060. I have not included antivirus, but there still a lot of budget you can use around. I use the website pcpartpicker to get the best deal in UK.

Good luck
