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?
Nice build, I didn’t think you could add a ryzen 7 in that budget, but I realized that the video card I added was way more expensive than it should be.
Something to look out for, that case if I remember correctly is a bit short, and I think you might have problems with the new video cards which are quite large, you would have to check compatibility, but I think the numbers that web pages shows, are without front fans.
Now I made some changes to the build, tell me what you think, I think there will be some good surprises in this new build, I went over 15 euros, but there are options to lower it. For example, the MoBo that you send is cheaper, and there is also a good seasonic psu for 100 euros (semi modular)
here is the updated list.
is that psu also good? I think its kinda awesome that we got everything into the budget and found some improvements :D thanks dude
A year ago there was a drama with the gigabyte psu exploding, I don’t know how they are nowadays. With the 6900 xt is recommended a 850W psu, I imagine that 750W is enough, but sometimes it’s better to be sure.
The psu brands that are recommended are seasonic, corsair and evga(of course there are more brands recommended, but these are always my priority), If I remember correctly the corsair ones are really seasonic with a rebranding.
With the case, remember to check if the video card will fit, I see it has 5 mm of free space, but try to make a double check.
I think I heard about the PSU drama. I might choose the seasonic one then. I just thought that the estimates of PCPartPicker actually help with choosing an PSU, which was around 520 w and if I have a bit more than that it should be enough.
Hmmm only 5 mm free space is kind of a thight fit tbh. If something is a bit off, the slot for the GPU for example, then it won’t fit xD I just really like the case, but I might change for a roomier one
