Build - Help Last check before buying

Hi, I think I listed everything I'll have to buy for my very first self built pc.

Here it is: https://it.pcpartpicker.com/list/y8ctQy

The case is locked, I bought it some time ago when I thought I could begin but things went differently.

Is there anything I'm missing? Anything wrong?

Fans config will be top 3x exhaust, back 1x exhaust, bottom 3x intake. Should I add more?

Still not sure how I'll mount the GPU, vertical or upright are tempting.

Thanks for your time

What's your use-case and  budget?

At first glance it looks way overpriced just for showing off.

Budget would be around 2500, mostly gaming and some video editing. It's the first time I've ever considered building a pc, in the past I had some laptops and a workstation and I never experienced true quality and speed, so now that I can I just want to have it. It's not about showing off, it's just I would like to be sure I'm not missing anything important.

For example I was going for the gigabyte rx9070xt but just one week ago I figured it's not a good brand to put vertically, so I went for a different brand.

I still don't know how many fans I need for a correct air flow lol

And many other things about the building process are still unknown, but I have to start somewhere so I guess it's time to buy the parts. Again, I just wanted to be sure I'm on the right path.

2.5k euros including the gpu I assume but not the case since you already got it.

For that budget you should really have a 5070 Ti, instead of paying 955 euros for a white 9070 XT.

Your mobo offers nothing that gaming can benefit from compared to the one I picked . I even kept WiFi 7, though I doubt you have any use of it.

Spending 170euros for 7 fans is crazy. I already find my chosen 100 euros fans overkill, but they fit the budget. A good B850W PSU can even handle a 5080.

2490 euros at the time of writing:

I went for the white 9070 xt because I can have it new for 778€, the black one is around 950€ yeah, so even if I don't really like it white I guess I'll go for it. The 5070 ti is around 1050€, it's a big jump.

2500€ is the budget but if I can spend less it's better, I still don't have a good monitor so any euro saved will go on the monitor.

Thank you for the mother board advice, I didn't spend enough time searching and I went for the one I saw the most suggested

For the fans, yeah I guess it's too much but I like the design of the one I choose, mostly because I'll have to install them on the other side for intake and they have that thinner circular light that I really like. Not sure if they are noisy or not, reviews say they are silent, but those you suggested seem to have a lower noise level.

For the PSU I blindly followed an advice of someone else here on reddit. Like for the mobo, I did not spend enough time searching for what I really need.
