So recently I've discovered my budget has increased by £200 to £1200.

I am wanting to play all the latest games at top settings in 1440p and may get into 4k in the future.
I'm pretty fearful of liquid cooling as this is my first PC Build and the first time I've worked to get the money and don't want to lose it because of a leak.
I need at least 500GB storage.
I went for Ryzen to save money.
I need WiFi because of the way my internet is set up (My parents won't wire anything).

Is this the best build I could get?

Swapped the case for a cheap case with good ventilation, I would personally remove the foam they use as a dust filter in it so you don't have to deal with popping the front off to clean it out as access to it is a bit of a pain. And I put a little bit more money into the SSD to upgrade to a faster m2 drive, there are still faster ones beyond this but this should be a few times faster than the one you had selected. Beyond that, yes you can spend more for more performance but your at the point where there isn't much need too from a quick glance at what you have as there is a point of diminishing returns.
