Consider an Intel CPU. It should offer better overall performance. This build suggestion includes a motherboard with two Thunderbolt 4 type-C ports. If they are not needed a less expensive motherboard could be used. I've included a low-end GPU. This will deliver a smother visual interface.

The differences between GPU of the same model are mostly related to cooling and noise levels. Actual performance differences are relatively small.

You can use se.pcpartpicker.com for local pricing and availability. Then post the permalink or a BB formatted build. This provides more details on parts like memory speed and timings. The Pure Rock 2 CPU cooler is suboptimal for the CPU. I would suggest a PSU that conforms to the new ATX 3.0 standard.

Return the memory. The timings are not good and using two different memory kits is contraindicated by DDR5 motherboard manufacturers. https://pcpartpicker.com/product/xQcgXL/corsair-vengeance-96-gb-2-x-48-gb-ddr5-6000-cl30-memory-cmk96gx5m2b6000c30 resolves these issues. The GPU in your build list does not have a radiator. If that is the model you acquired or did you get https://pcpartpicker.com/product/VtPQzy/msi-suprim-liquid-x-geforce-rtx-4090-24-gb-video-card-geforce-rtx-4090-suprim-liquid-x-24g? Regardless of case the goal should be to establish good, unconflicted airflow through the case. If the acquired GPU is the one in the build list consider the Lancool 216. If you actually have the liquid version the 5000D Airflow would be okay. No additional fans are needed in either setup.

Pcpartpicker is a bit picky when it comes to USB-C headers and ports. The motherboard header supports Gen 2x2 (20 Gb/s). The case USB-C port doesn't support 2x2, so it will run slower. You should be able to use the case cable without issue.

Looks good. But consider a 360 AIO like the LS720 or LE720. Corsair has different memory kits for AMD and Intel CPU. Please make sure that the chosen kit contains XMP profiles intended for Intel systems. The i7-14700K is the standout Raptor Lake Refresh CPU as it has 4 more e-cores than the predecessor i7-13700K.

Get a better PSU. One that is ATX 3.0 compliant with native support for the 12VHPWR connector used by the GPU. Perhaps https://nl.pcpartpicker.com/product/phVmP6/thermaltake-toughpower-gf3-tt-premium-850-w-80-gold-certified-fully-modular-atx-power-supply-ps-tpd-0850fnfagu-4.

The i9-14900K really needs a 360 or larger AIO for optimal performance. New CPU coolers come with thermal compound. There is usually no reason to buy more. The motherboard is excessive. The memory kit is intended for AMD CPU.

The screenshot indicates you are running DDR5~6000 30-40-40-96.

The memory kit is sub-optimal as it is intended for AMD CPU. Select a kit that includes XMP profiles. Ideally DDR5-6000 CL30. The PSU is a bad choice. See https://cultists.network/140/psu-tier-list/ for options. Mesh front cases tend to have better airflow. This may lead to quieter and more efficient operation. A non-K CPU is fine. But check pricing. In some markets the i7-14700K is actually less expensive (although one has to add a cooler). Stock cooler should be fine although if may make the system loud at times. It may also hamper performance when the CPU is fully loaded for longer periods. Even an inexpensive GPU can improve performance. Photoshop may use an Nvidia GPU to accelerate certain functions. In general a GPU will improve display performance making the system seem more responsive.

If you want to spend more you could get a GPU. If you want to spend less get a 2x16GB memory kit. I just noticed that I somehow don't have the case I wanted in the build. The Meshify 2 Mini, https://de.pcpartpicker.com/product/KVkWGX/fractal-design-meshify-2-mini-microatx-mid-tower-case-fd-c-mes2m-01, would be much better than the Define Mini as it has better airflow. Cost differential is marginal.
