I'm in the market for a new PC that primarily meets my gaming needs at 1440p, especially for titles like Warzone and various AA or AAA games. Additionally, I occasionally engage in video editing for travel archives, but it's more of a hobby than a main priority. My budget is around 1750 EUR, and I tried creating a build on my own, which you can check out here: [link].
Key points about my build:
1. I've sourced the cheapest DDR5 RAM available.
2. I already own an SSD.
3. I'm uncertain if I should opt for the 7700X processor or if the difference is negligible for my use case.
4. Are the motherboard and GPU I picked good for their price?

Have you considered a prebuilt option? In Germany, there are some that offer better specs for your budget right now. For example, check out this AMD Ryzen build [link]. Performance-wise, the 9070 graphics card is about 10-15% faster than the 5070, but the 5070 is superior for anything utilizing Cuda. I’d say research those options, especially if you’re concerned about PSU quality.
I noticed you might want to save a bit on the case and power supply, but it’s not a dealbreaker. It's good you’re not going for the cheapest PSU; quality matters.
Your motherboard and GPU seem reasonably priced for what they offer. As for the CPU, there's no real need to upgrade for your tasks—you should be fine with what you have.
