First pc build help
Considering what you want to use the game for, it would make much more sense to stick to socket AM4 and 5th gen Ryzen CPUs, cheaper DDR4 memory, and put the difference towards the video card and monitor.
Forget about future proof - you're still able to buy DDR3 memory, and you'll be able to buy DDR4 memory for years to come. You'll be able to buy a 5950x from eBay in a few years if you'll feel you'll need more cpu power.
Here's a potential build : https://nl.pcpartpicker.com/list/KTfLgb
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 3.8 GHz 8-Core Processor (€242.95 @ Megekko)
CPU Cooler: be quiet! Pure Rock 2 Black CPU Cooler (€43.85 @ Amazon Netherlands)
Motherboard: ASRock B550M Steel Legend Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard (€133.85 @ Megekko)
Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws V 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3600 CL18 Memory (€54.90 @ Amazon Netherlands)
Storage: Western Digital Blue SN570 1 TB M.2-2280 PCIe 3.0 X4 NVME Solid State Drive (€76.00 @ Amazon Netherlands)
Video Card: XFX Speedster SWFT 309 Radeon RX 6700 XT 12 GB Video Card (€453.00 @ Amazon Netherlands)
Case: NZXT H510 Flow ATX Mid Tower Case (€94.90 @ Amazon Netherlands)
Power Supply: EVGA 650 GQ 650 W 80+ Gold Certified Semi-modular ATX Power Supply (€86.90 @ Azerty)
Monitor: Asus TUF Gaming VG27AQ 27.0" 2560 x 1440 165 Hz Monitor (€329.00 @ Amazon Netherlands)
Total: €1515.35
The motherboard may not be available at that price, or may be out of stock. In general solid motherboards can be found at 150-165 eur. That asrock has very good value for the features it has.
You'll want to add some extra storage eventually, maybe a 4+ TB mechanical drive.
The video card does better than a 3060 and it's nearly as good as a 3070, here's compared to other video card models : https://www.techpowerup.com/review/amd-radeon-rx-6700-xt/29.html
You don't want curved monitor at 1080p at 23-24", it's just too small. Get curved monitor if you go for 2560x1080 or 3440x1080 or 3440 x 1440
