In the UK that build will be the same price as we have something called VAT included with each purchases. So that build would cost around £850 here in the UK.

Probably the worst board you could have chosen. No VRM cooling and you can't overclock on the A320 chipset. That ram is also way too slow.

The 1st build posted is pretty good for the budget. You can go with the cheaper MSI B450-A PRO if you want to shave a few quid off for a hard drive.

He allowed twice as much on the SSD alone than he did on the board and RAM!

Its tax, so parts in the UK would cost more than parts in US. VAT is Value added tax.
