is the ryzen the best value for money at the moment ?when i was looking at the alienware line they all seemed to be i7
also gfx card is the rx580 on par with the gtx 1080?
If you want to spend the £1500 then maybe something like this:

Either I'm mis-understanding, but he said upto 200 extra for a monitor (in addition to the £1500 original build figure)If you are only spending up to £200 on the monitor then you don't really need a GTX 1080. You could easily get away with a GTX 1060 6GB or RX 580 8GB. As for the cpu I would take a Ryzen R5 over an i5.
will need a copy of windows only
will be looking for a monitor seperatly or allow upto £200 extra for monitor
thanks
nice that, but doesnt include a monitor

So £1500 + £200 = £1700. I posted a Ryzen build with a GTX 1080 + good monitor for under £1700.

Yes he said a separate budget for the monitor. Your build does have a better gpu, but it has a much cheaper case, only 128GB of storage (Which won't last 2 minutes) and no copy of Windows.
I know. All done on purpose. Windows is missing as it can be found a lot cheaper elsewhere. It makes 0 sense to downgrade the entire pc just to fit in an overpriced copy of windows. You could add a 240gb regular SSD instead of PCI for cheaper, sure. All of this, and my reasoning for, were said in the earlier post.
