I will start with the parts I planed to use.

 

Case: Corsair Carbide Series 275 R  

CPU: Ryzen 7 3800x 

CPU Cooler:  be quiet! Dark Rock 4  

Motherboard: Asus ROG Strix B450-F

RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 16 GB

GPU: Asus ROG Strix 2070 Super or MSI RTX2070 Super 

SSD: Already have Storage   

Power Supply: Corsair TX550M 

 

 

Budget & Location

My budget is around 1400-1500 Euro.

 

Aim

This Pc would mainly be used to game on it and maybe edit or record some gameplay.

 

Monitors

I already have a 144hz monitor. 

 

Peripherals

I also already have all the peripherals i need. 

 

Why are you upgrading?

Im upgrading because my current pc is not getting 144+ fps in most of my games and is 6+ years old.

 

Please leave your thoughts and let me know about any thing you would do different.

Changed the CPU to a Ryzen 3700X - the extra for the 3800X is not worth it, especially if you are only streaming, recording and doing some editing on the side.

I always recommend skipping a CPU cooler at first, see if you are happy with the stock cooler that comes with the CPU. It's solid and even allows for some light OC.

Changed to a better B450 motherboard.

Changed the case to the airflow variant.

3600MHz/CL16 ram is rather expensive in Germany (what's your location exactly? I just went with Germany since you just mentioned €), so I stuck with 3200Mhz/CL16.

Upgraded GPU to a 2080 Super (3 fan)

What storage do you have? I highly recommend at least a 500GB SSD.

And what would you say about the be quiet! System Power 9 ? 
 

As @boggy77 said the TXM Gold is a solid PSU and better than the System Power 9 - no need to change the PSU. I chose a Corsair RM for this list just because it's fully modular and fit the budget.
