[First Build], y'all better help this time
###Build Help/Ready:
Have you read the sidebar and rules?
Yes.
I'm hoping someone could take a look at the following midrange build. I don't need to play 2018's AAA games at 300 FPS, but good performance & consistent frames on high settings would be great. I already have the monitor and the case -- looking to spend $800-850 on the rest, with a hard cap at $900.

Looking especially for feedback on the CPU & GPU - is the CPU too cheap? Am I going overboard with the GPU? Could I get better value? And please let me know if you think I'm skimping on the PSU.
Thanks :)
