Hi
I need assistance with a build using amazon.de parts, especially a special coupon for discounted prices. Could someone help me create a build for 1440p? I don’t need a monitor and it’s mainly for gaming. The budget is around 2500 euros. Thank you.

Preferences, CPU: Intel or AMD, GPU: Nvidia or AMD. Do you require additional items beyond the monitor such as a keyboard/mouse or Windows?

I know 7800x3d is really good for gaming so might go amd unless someone has an argument for intel. And no i do not need anything such as keyboard / mouse , Windows i can get a cheap copy i think or use my old one.

For that amount of money you can easily construct a 4K machine. I recently finished setting up my new system and spent 2575 euros.

The inexpensive keys don't work well. You can move a license from an older system if you purchased the operating system yourself—whether retail or OEM—it isn't a ready-made (HP, Dell, etc.) product and is linked to your MS account, so you need to turn it off before using it on a new PC.

A retail copy of Windows or a computer purchased from a store has distinct differences. The latter is harder to activate, though it's still achievable. Buying a retail version of Windows means you purchase and install it yourself, which may involve various hardware modifications.

I'm working with a retail copy of Windows on this PC, and I plan to reuse it on a new machine. I built this about ten years ago, so I'll just install Windows via USB and activate it using the key I still have. Also, I happen to have a 4070 TI GPU, so that's out of the question.

Since you already have a GPU, it's unclear where you intend to allocate the 2.5k.

That's good then, save a bit of money.
Here's my take. Above build is good too, think mine is a little better
obviously with more funds could increase 990 pro to 4tb or one of them. Mind you, for 7800x3D to work might require a bios update so prepare a usb stick just in case and make sure motherboard can update bios without cpu. The board i suggested does, not sure about Asrock these days, you'll have to look at features.
