No Power Supply?

Out of those suggested so far, this one linked by @ahmad13610 is the best of the bunch and rated highest (and doesn't cost much more than the Corsair you had).  https://de.pcpartpicker.com/product/69kj4D/be-quiet-system-power-9-700-w-80-bronze-certified-atx-power-supply-bn248

Also my own 2 cents would suggest that for a little more you can get semi-modular and 80 Plus Gold from this much newer be quiet power supply, the Pure Power 11: https://de.pcpartpicker.com/product/K3Jtt6/be-quiet-pure-power-11-cm-600-w-80-gold-certified-semi-modular-atx-power-supply-bn298

Only feedback I would give is that I have found some SKUs for the 2060 going for less than MSRP in the US and possibly if you went to nvidia's de site they could link you to SKUs that have gone on sale... Example... the 1660 Ti I was going to get was like 280 USD but I only paid 319 for a 2060 which was a pretty substantial upgrade in GPU... You might still be ok with a 2600 CPU and spend more on the GPU not sure... But if you are going b450 the only board to consider is the Tomahawk bang for the buck its king

@lee32uk @VEXICUS @ahmad13610.....

Replace that mobo with b450 tomahawk as it is better and cheaper...

 

Replace the SSD with a mx500

 

I have added that 3tb drive for Mass storage...

 

Except the rgb components, you can copy this build ..?

How much video editing will you be doing and at what resolution? 1080p, 1440p, 4K? What program do you use for video editing? Premier Pro? DaVinci Resolve?

Moderate editing, filming is a hobby for me. I will be dealing with 4K footage.

Oops, good point. Thanks for the tip. A computer does tend to run ever so slightly better if it has a PSU.

CPU Cooler NZXT - Kraken X62 Rev 2 98.17 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler

It's a bit much to pay for a CPU AIO cooler.  Unless you actually expect to extreme OC the Ryzen you'd get better value from a decent air cooler, even one with RGB.  Unless you're already firm on this specific cooler and are ok to pay that much just for the RGB-factor.

Crucial - BX500 480 GB 2.5" Solid State Drive

 

Be advised that the BX500 is cheaper than the MX500 because it doesn't have a DRAM cache, this will make it less good for using as your Windows OS-drive.  I would spend more and at least get a Sata (or NVMe if price isn't much more) that has a full cache for best random read/write performance.  Like this:  https://de.pcpartpicker.com/product/nGzkcf/corsair-mp510-480gb-m2-2280-solid-state-drive-cssd-f480gbmp510  It's about 10 euros more than a sata SSD like the MX500 480GB drive, but it does take advantage of NVMe which is pretty nice (possibly for editing or big file demands).

Video Card MSI - GeForce RTX 2060 6 GB VENTUS OC Video Card €357.94 @ Mindfactory

I would personally go for the Vega 64 or another higher card at that price range.  Something like this Vega 64 does beat the 2060 in all areas other than ray-tracing, and heat/noise: https://de.pcpartpicker.com/product/h766Mp/gigabyte-radeon-rx-vega-64-8gb-video-card-gv-rxvega64gaming-oc-8gd .  The only other reason to stay NVIDIA is if your video editing/rendering can take advantage of CUDA.

I'm assuming you haven't clicked any of the links yet or noticed that OP even directly stated in this thread he's building this in Germany.

Even the last post from OP's PCPartPicker list shows the price as "€1125.93"  That's not a $ symbol.  lol

I asked about the vega 56 model of that gigabyte card and everyone told me it was a very problematic card and avoid it at all costs when it was available at like 260 USD..

Ok well even just speaking about prices on the DE - PcPartPicker than this could be an alternative if there's truly major concerns (some people posting reviews on Amazon/Newegg in US haven't had issues with it that posted on the card, so it's a slight higher risk of being a non-ideal card):

https://de.pcpartpicker.com/product/7nYWGX/asus-radeon-rx-vega-64-8gb-rog-strix-video-card-rog-strix-rxvega64-o8g-gaming  for 25 euros more.

That is probably a very good Vega 64 yes
