I'm planning to build a computer from scratch and am looking for recommendations on components such as the motherboard, graphics card, RAM, and others. My budget is around €2,000, and I want to make sure I get quality parts without any junk. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Honestly, I'd suggest checking out YouTube for guides. A channel I like is Zach's Tech Turf; he often has builds around the $2000 mark. Just search for what you're interested in playing and at what resolution, and you'll find a good match!
First off, it's important to know what you'll use the PC for. Are you just looking to game, or do you need it for tasks like video editing or 3D modeling? Also, do you have any peripherals, like a monitor and keyboard, already? And what's your target resolution? That can really affect the components you should choose.
For a €2000 budget, here's a solid build idea:
- **CPU**: AMD Ryzen 7 9700X
- **Motherboard**: Asus TUF GAMING B650E-E WIFI
- **RAM**: Kingston FURY Beast 32GB DDR5
- **Storage**: Samsung 990 EVO Plus 2TB NVMe SSD
- **GPU**: Gigabyte GAMING OC Radeon RX 9070 XT 16GB
- **Case**: Phanteks XT PRO ATX Mid Tower
- **PSU**: MSI MAG 850W Gold Certified Fully Modular Power Supply
This totals around €1873, which leaves some wiggle room in case you want to tweak or upgrade a part.

Just a heads up, to save a bit more, you might think about opting for a PCIe 4.0 SSD instead of the 5.0. It could help you stay closer to your budget.
