Building this.. Would this be fine for the price? In the country I live in the price in total is around 1080€. Since I want this pc to work okayish for video editing and great for gaming, is this a good option?

Personally, I would just use the stock cooler, should do well enough. BUT if you do go aftermarket cooling, a decent tower coooler would suit better

After effects and premiere pro

he's probably going to suggest an 8700 for that, Intel has quicksync that makes it better in adobe programs, don't know to what extenct though. You'll probably be fine either way, it depends on what priority you give to video editing compared to the rest

That cooler is beyond overkill. Get a Dark Rock Pro 4. More reliable and excellent performance.

 

Also, change the board for a B450 Tomahawk Max.

 

You don't need 650W. 500W is already overkill.

 

Use the saved money on a 5700XT or 2070 Super

Quick sync gives speed at the expense of quality. I would skip it personally.

How many times do I have to tell you this is not the case for rendering and exporting, only if you're streaming with QuickSync handling the encode.

 

How many times do I also have to explain that editing tools in After Effects and Premiere are all single threaded and Ring Bus helps a lot?

 

Also Adobe like CUDA not OpenCL we all know that so much so why do you even mention the RX5700XT, it is a great card for GAMING not hardware acceleration as it loses to it's much older Vega 64 sister.

 

And wanna know what is funny on this case I actually gonna say go with the R5 3600 because OP is clearly not going to be doing anything on professional level so it doesn't matter nearly as much... although @LukeSavenije recommended build is really solid for the price.

In terms of price on those, sadly in my country the pricing is really high, for example the GPU is already 525€ and the ram 144€.
