Price point should be close to £350 ideally, going to be used for streaming, watching movies and gaming. Will be buying a 27 inch 144hz 1440p monitor or a 144hz 24 inch 1080p... not sure on that part but suggest me a GPU :)

5700 XT would be my choice with that budget.

The XT version is considerably faster than the non-XT version. The RX 5700XT is close to a 2070 Super's performance while a non-XT is close to a 2060's performance.
