I really only once built my own pc and that was years ago. Now i finally have a nice job and have around a budget of 2k € to buy a pc. Im from europe, so no american prices for me.

A friend of mine said maybe another CPU would be better? The reason i chose a watercooler was to get it very quiet. Does that achieve that? Do they have other issues i should be aware of?

I only will use this pc for gaming and watching movies. Nothing much more. I dont want a curved screen, but i dont even know if i need 165 Hz. I play shooters but only casually.

Thanks for the input already :)

EDIT:

new list without the much recommended 7800X3D but at least it keeps me under 2k€ and there is an upgrade of the GPU. I also thought about going only 27’’ but i really would like one bigger screen to watch movies.

I looked at the benchmark of the 7700 and the 7800x3d from cpumonkey and they seemed very similar with the one being somewhere better than the other and vice versa. So maybe not that much of a difference or wrong?

As you are from germany, you could use geizhals.at for the cheapest prices. If you are not in abruah to buy it, you should use the price notification aswell.

Many have mentioned the 7800x3d. The 5800x3d is more like your budget and perfect for gaming. Currently almost the same performance.

I am, and yes I’m def gonna use Geizhals or Idealo or something like that.

I might wait till Christmas to buy since I read that there the prices are gonna be the best.

Is the 5800x3d good if I wanna use the same PC for a while? I don’t wanna get into VR or anything like that

While the 7800x3d should do a great job for the next 7 or so years, I believe the 5800x3d should be fine for 5 years in terms of not bottlenecking you.
