Advice on Parts for New Build

[MagpieMate]

Budget (including currency): 1500 AUD (1081USD)

Country: Australia

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Rainbow Six, Sea of Thieves, Star Wars related

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): 

Starting from scratch and would probably like to purchase in July.

1080p gaming 144hz.

First personal gaming computer (pretty confident in building).

Need a new mouse, keyboard and headset.

No need to factor in a monitor. Will purchase later in the year.

just the PC or with monitor/peripherals/os?

do you have a monitor or must that be included in the budget as well?

I mentioned that the monitor will be purchased later. No need to factor it into the final cost.

I'm not very knowledgeable on Australian pricing so I hope this is good value. I haven't included peripherals but hopefully this leaves enough headroom, if not you could downgrade the GPU to a 5600xt.
