Hello I'm building a new pc, I have never built a pc before but I think I know what I'm doing, but I need some help finding the right components.
I made this pc partpicker list: https://nl.pcpartpicker.com/list/sG9Wxc
and this spreadsheet:

CPU Core I5 11400 € 203.95
CPU-cooler be quiet! Pure Rock Slim 2 cpu-koeler € 25.90
Moederbord Gigabyte B560M AORUS ELITE € 112.95
PowerSupply EVGA 700w € 59.00
Behuizing Corsair iCUE 220T RGB € 89.90
koolpasta Cooler Master HTK-002 koelpasta € 4.00
GPU rx570 € 0.00
Prijs  

€ 495.70

 

(I own a rx570 GPU, and I own 2 8gb 2666Hz ram.) 
With this I would like to play 'simple' games like CSGO and GTA at 60-80 fps at decent settings. I also plan on buying a 3060 in 1-2 years if the prices drop. Do you guys have any suggestions about this build or see any mistakes I made.
I live in the Netherlands so the prices are in euro's and all the components are from Alternate and Amazon.nl

You can probably save money by going with a lower end case, and this will depend on what PSU specifically you went with. You want to make sure it's a high quality unit, and EVGA is hit or miss with their sub-1000w units. Everything else looks fine. You probably don't need to buy thermal paste, the stuff that comes with be quiet! coolers is fairly high quality.

For the case, I really like the corsair case and I dont mind spending 30 euro's more for a case that looks way better 

Fair enough, I'm not a fan of it (building in it was a chore, half because of the RGB), but if you like the look of it, it looks good once fully built.

Do you have any suggestions for a PSU, it can also be 600W. 500W may be a bit too low Im not sure, cause with the 3060 it goes up a lot (i think).

The CX650M or CX550M is a pretty decent unit for cheap. It should be able to hand a 3060, but wouldn't go above that, especially if you go for the 550w. You should be able to run a 3060 on a 550w PSU though.

You might be able to get something for cheaper that's still good. Consult the PSU tier list before buying anything though.

 

 

I wouldn't go below B-Tier for this system, and if you can manage to get an A-Tier unit for this price range that would be optimal.
