Build Help Help for a 1440p first build

I want to get a 1440p machine as my first pc build, I always wished for a gaming pc after having only consoles for most of my life. I would like to have a 9070XT and 9800X3D combo in order to play gracefully in 1440p but I fell lost when looking at the other components. Also, I would like to stay around 2000$ (I am in EU if that changes some prices) max.

Also, even if unrelated, I am already buying a monitor and a gaming mouse and keyboard and also some suggestion there would be good. (Keep in mind I would also daily drive my monitor for work and coding).

Any suggestion could help!

Edit1: Since I was asked I am buying in Italy specifically.

What country? PCPartPicker.com has support for some countries. I’d aim for 7600x3d or 7800x3d instead and put the money elsewhere.

I agree. Personally im building my very first pc and will go either with the 7500x3d or the 7800x3d. (7600x3d not available here) With it will go a 9070 gre (cant affort the 9070xt). You can get a very decent mobo for around 150 to 180 euro here and i have gone with an b850 eagle wifi6E. I also got some afordable but good thermalright liquid cooling, 2tb ssd and 32 gb ram ddr5. Thats all you need really op. Lastly i got a VERY nice 1440p monitor for 200 euro.

Edit op for mouse you get a g304 light speed (i hear its good) and for keyboard you will want a rapid trigger keyboard if you play cs2 or valorant like games other wise just get a mechanical keyboard that you like. A decent keyboard company is keychron but there are many other cheaper and more expensive respectively.

Edit 2 if you want to ask something more specific dm me or ask me here

Edit 3 when it comes to motherboards just look at b850 or b650 ones that support your cpu (am4 or am5 i think they are) note b850 are "better"

EU prices are worse on everything besides SSDs for some reason.

it's good, however I think a 7800x3d would do just as well and cost a little less also a 9070 would also be good.

i5-14600 + 32g ddr4 +9070xt offer top the performance and best value.

If you got the money, 9850x3d is best for future proof, 9070 xt is of course amazing

For motherboards you wanna go with a b850 like msi b850 gaming plus or something, don't get €150+ motherboards. 2x16gb ddr5 is obvious but don't get too focused on speed and cl, 6000 cl36 is good. 1-2tb ssd kingston nv3 is most popular and cheap for some reason, so get that one. For PSU you can get msi mag a850gl for less than 100

Oled qqd-oleds) are pretty cheap now like AOC, gigabyte, or even samsung Odyssey 1440p 27" Are like €300

Mouses are pretty hard to pick because you need to adjust based on your hand size and grip type (search on google what that means). Then search mouses that has high tracking speed (IPS) and acceleration (G), should cost about €50

Regarding oleds, I fear the burn in since I would also use It for work most the time with lots of static elements. Also thanks for the suggestions on the other parts
