800$ Gaming PC, anything I should change or add?

###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.

I will be mainly using this PC for most modern gaming and some pre-2010 games as well.

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

1080p high/ultra and around 50-60 Fps in what I'm aiming for. Maybe 720p

What is your budget (ballpark is okay)?

The build I've made in PC part picker comes out around 750, and want to stay there, and I will not go above 800 too much$.

In what country are you purchasing your parts?

I will be buying these parts in the US using Amazon

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!).

Ive been researching the internet for a couple of weeks now and I've made this.
