Looking for advice on my 1440p 144hz mATX gaming build.
###Build Help/Ready:
Have you read the sidebar and rules? (Please do)
Yes.
What is your intended use for this build? The more details the better.
Gaming, software/game development and making music in FL Studio.
If gaming, what kind of performance are you looking for? (Screen resolution, framerate, game settings)
I play on 1440p 144Hz, so that's pretty much my performance target. I'd like to play on the maximum possible settings, as long as I still get over 80-90fps. I play a wide variety of games including your typical AAA games with top-notch graphics.
What is your budget (ballpark is okay)?
Somewhere around €1300 but I'm flexible if the performance gains would be noticeable enough.
In what country are you purchasing your parts?
The Netherlands, but I can order from Germany as well if prices would be favorable there.
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.
Don't mind the prices in the PCPartPicker list, they're incomplete and inaccurate. I've manually changed them to the proper values. The CPU cooler wasn't listed so I added it manually. The total price comes down to around €1350.
I'm kind of unsure about a few things still. I really like the Evolv mATX case, but the airflow is pretty mediocre. Would it be fine with the 5 140mm fans? What fan config would be optimal here? I've heard that the openings at the top don't work well for exhausting at all, so I might actually mod the case to increase airflow. Also, is my chosen PSU any good? It's around €20 cheaper than similar PSUs from competing brands, so I'm kind of wary about it. Reviews say it's fine but not great. If it makes any difference, this will be my first build.
