I would say so for at least 3 years if you stick to 1080p. If you're playing at or planning on going to a higher res than that though, you may want to consider waiting until you can afford a better GPU.

I'm still not sure what prices you're paying though, so it's hard to say. Not even sure what country you're shopping in.

That said, your next upgrade 3-5 yrs down the road I would consider a 6 or 8 core CPU, but for now, this rig will do fine at 1080p.
Hard to say without knowing what price you're paying for the parts.

The parts will fit, but the 7500 CPU and MB are not overclockable. For only $40 more than a 7500 you can get a much higher clocked and overclockable 7600k.

You can also get a Z270 Pro overclockable MB right now for $10 less than that AsRock board you picked. https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130993

Note that the MB you picked only supports up to 2400 speed RAM too.

Here's a decent 2x8GB RAM kit at 3000 speed. https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820232298

Lastly, I feel this Seasonic PSU at same price is a better unit than the EVGA and offers 5 vs 3 yr warranty. https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817151096
