Help with Case and Part choice//prob buying parts tonight

Build Help

###Build Help/Ready:

tldr: i would like some overall feedback with the case and the videocard being the biggest points. anything to make it cheaper would of course be amazing too.

Yes i read the rules

What is your intended use for this build? The more details the better.

Internet browsing. Skype(will have to purchase webcam as cam-monitors seem poop and expensive). . Maybe technical drawing on AutoCAD. microsoft office etc. Gaming( older indi games(steam library that growed from sale to sale with games that my laptop cant run properly.); MMORPS (Black desert or blade and soul); Future ARPGs (Lost Ark/Mu Legends); generally RPGs (Tales Series), many more. but since i am not a CSGO hardcore competitive games i figured instead of going tn 144hz freesync, maybe some IPS 60hz will do fine for these kind of games

If gaming, what kind of performance are you looking for? (Screen resolution, framerate, game settings)

i will probably go for 60Hz IPS display. depending on price and offers likely a 1440p one. of course 144Hz would be amazing, but i would really like to go IPS. settings the higher the better. but i dont need a gtx1080. i am fine to go just high or medium-high settings when the time comes.

What is your budget (ballpark is okay)?

i already bought an ssd about a month ago. for the rest of the build around 1000€ is the way to go i think.

In what country are you purchasing your parts?

Germany

Post a draft of your potential build here (specific parts please). Consider formatting your parts list. Don't ask to be spoonfed a build (read the rules!).

Provide any additional details you wish below.

i already own the SSD

well cpu. its ryzen. its not a 3000euro build. and i think i will be satisfied.

i thought about getting a cheaper mATX board. but im worried to build on it as a first timer. thought about getting MSI instead. but i think the better sound in gigabyte is cool. i dont really need sli. but well. also i dont think i might need usb-c. at least i hope so.

i dont see the ram in the supported RAM list of the board. so i will just pray

videocard. honestly i wanted to go rx580. but not there. obviously. and since i dont really like the 1060 cards being only 6gb models i think about going 1070 instead. and with that decreasing the necesity of an early future upgrade **but i would really like some feed back here. either to card itself or if i should go for something completely different.

the case. i really like this design. but its seems to be an already older model and i barely see anyone on this sub building with it. on research i saw some decent reviews. some worse. same say its to big for a mid tower. some say its fine. would anyone have any information about this case or first hand experience to share? if not i would also take other recommendations. i prefer cases without a side panel in also this price range. it would be fantastic if the case would be insulated like the aerocool one, as i hope it will reduce noise decently.

lastly i choose the powersupply as i got the s12g model recommendet before. i followed a psu tierlist, as i didnt want to cheap out to much, but went for this model as i dont think i need a fully modular psu, and the higher efficiency rating, to safe some money over time. hopefully. well the psu are about 10euro difference.

i do have mouse and keyboard, ad will use an older monitor until i settled something for my needs.
