Well, yes. It is ok. All the parts will play well together and it will provide good performance.

However, I do have a question. The CPU, is it an 8600 or an 8600K? Because if it isn't the K model you could save a few dollars by going with a B360 based motherboard over the Z370. Unless the Z370 board has some specific feature that you are interested in, the only reason to have one is really just for overclocking.

It's just an 8600 - I'll look into switching the Z370 for the B360

Thank you!

For $1500, if you are interested, you can get other builds as well which may be better for your usage. What are your main uses?
