There are a few things I would change in that build:
1. I would not buy that CPU and go for Ryzen r5 1600 or wait for Intel's new CPUs( Coffee lake 8th gen).
2. You don't need to buy a CPU cooler with non-k(locked CPUs that can't be overclocked) Intel CPUs and Ryzen r5 1600 as they come with CPU cooler.
3. If you want wifi then instead of buying a 150$ add on card buy a better motherboard that comes with wifi, you will save some money.
4. Buy cheaper RAM if you want to save some more money, you can buy a 16 GB kit for around 140$.
5. Buy an SSD.
