Depends if you need the extra cores & threads. I'd say just stick with the i7.

I'd change your RAM to a cheaper option. 2666MHz is already good enough for Intel, since higher memory speeds don't benefit Intel chips as much as they do for AMD Ryzen chips.

Switch your SSD to a WD Blue SN550 1TB. The controller and NAND in the SX8200 SSD you listed was recently switched to some slower option.

Get a Corsair RM750 PSU. It should be cheaper and perform the same with the PSU you listed.

 

Everything else looks good for me.
