This will be my first actual build of my own, and would love some advice to assist with parts, pieces and what to buy. Currently at a loss as well as overwhelmed due to the variety of options at my disposal.

All help would be appreciated, really need guidance on what to buy!

Thank you!

This is a good build that will be very good for gaming but not for overclocking as you wanted. If you disapprove anything let me know so i can make changes.
As for your graphics card, an RX 480 ($200) should completely max out 1080p gaming but if you are planning of playing at 1440p in the future you can go for the GTX 1070. Though the RX 480 should also handle 1440p very well. If you want to spend your original budget since a RX 480 + this build should come to about $800 i can swap the processor out for an i5 6600k and increase your storage if you like.
