The gtx 1080 is overkill for a 1920x1080 resolution. If you are planning to play at that resolution you could spend half your budget for a very decent spec. A gtx 1070 will be more cost effective and max games at 1920x1080

I was just gonna buy that now so I won't have to upgrade for a long time. Is everything else in my build okay? Really appreciate the advice and trying to save me money 👍

If you are happy with the spec go for it. I personally wouldn't try to futureproof by choosing the most expensive components. It would be better to upgrade the gpu in a couple of years, more futureproof and more cost effective.
