Mostly talked about when switching from an i7 4790K to a Ryzen 7 3700X, especially regarding chipsets. There are some notable concerns you should watch for, and certain motherboard options stand out as better choices.

the budget can adjust a bit but under £750 would be great

This provides ample space. Will you upgrade beyond an 8-core processor for non-gaming tasks? If not, here’s a list of items from PCPartPicker. Prices reflect CPUs, memory, and other components with shipping, taxes, rebates, and discounts included. Total comes to £542.97 as of April 4, 2020.

I often handle several tasks at once, such as chrome tabs, Discord, games, and more. Depending on the game or friend hosting a server, things can get busy, but it's not very frequent, so it doesn't usually cause problems for me.

Everything will run seamlessly at a 3700X with no requirement for 12 or 16 processing units.
