Building My First PC: Seeking Advice and Opinions on Components - Budget 2.5k Euros!

[Walsounet]

Hello! This will be my first build on my own, and since I am inexperienced, I would like to seek some opinions and help regarding the components I've chosen. I've already done some research, but I'm open to suggestions on the parts I've selected or alternative options. I plan to primarily use the PC for gaming (1440p), but I also want it to be capable of handling work tasks when needed. The budget for this PC is limited to 2.5k Euros and most likely, I will buy it next week.

Please note that I'm aware that I haven't included the PSU yet, as I'm still undecided on which one to choose. Also, I already have a case (a budget one, but I'll use it until I buy a new one) for the build.

Any feedback and suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Try this. That 120mm fan goes inside the back of that case for a rear exhaust fan. You want to use Windows 11 with these intel 13 gen cpu's.

Thank you for taking the time to respond, and for your answer. I forgot to mention that I already have a case (a budget one, but I'll use it until I buy a new one) for the PC. I will definitely take a closer look at the parts you suggested, and I'm glad you considered the Case Fan and PSU.

You are also right about the OS.
