Part list of what I've got so far.
Already have case, monitor, keyboard, and mouse
When it comes to price I'm needing something thats more like below $1000
Don't want to spend more than I have to. 800+ would be great if possible.
I want to stick with the cpu, just because I thought the price wasn't too terrible. But if I need something different then its not the end of the world.
Will probably need a hard drive and some good RAM preferably more than 8GB
When it comes to a GPU I'm really not sure what is best to go with... I thought a 1070 would be good but they seem to be pretty pricey. So if you can find one that is a good deal I might consider it.
Been looking myself for a while but could use some outside opinions.
Thanks for the help!

Ryzen is best bang for the money now, ssd is crucial for speed, Ryzen loves fast ram, 1060 6gb is more than sufficient for 1080p gaming:

First let me say the i7 8700k 6 core comes out the 5th for about the same price. The i5 8600k for $250 should be faster on the 5th. If you must get it now here is a build.

You can try some coffee lake I5 build, but may exceed your budget :)
