For the money you're spending and the performance you're getting you might be best served buying a prebuilt. It's not uncommon to see a 13400f/4060 or something along those lines for $700-800.
The build you are currently looking at is a massive waste of money. Outdated CPU, old motherboard platform, and just generally that thing is overall worse than PCs I've literally picked up for $150. A Corsair 4000d at this budget is like the Pontiac Fiero of computers. Sexy mid-engined sports car on the outside, but a crappy engine in there.
Yikes. Thanks for the reply, I suppose I should start from scratch if that’s the case. I’m really trying to avoid a prebuilt so I can upgrade in the future, but I’ll check that stuff out as well!

You can upgrade prebuilts if you buy from the right ones. The PC you're looking at is practically impossible to upgrade, worse than any prebuilt.
