Yep the I5 can manage to hold any current gpu without bottlenecking it.

An AMD cpu has no place in a solely gaming build, end of.

Why you shouldn't trust Gpu or Cpu boss Click on this I dare you!

good build, altough I recommend getting a 2x4 dimms for dual channel and a little extra preformance, 

Early 2020 Build : Intel i7 8700k // MSI Krait Z370 // Corsair LPX 8x2 16GB // Aorus 5700 XT // NZXT H500 

Early 2019 Build : Ryzen 2600X // Asus Tuff X470 // G.Skill Trident Z RGB 8x2 16GB // MSI RTX 2070 // NZXT H500 

Late 2017 Build : Intel i7 8700k // Asus Prime Z370-A // G.Skill Trident Z 8x2 16GB // EVGA GTX 1080 Ti  // NZXT S320 Elite 

Late 2015 Build : Intel i7 6700k // Asus Maximus VI Gene Z170 //  Corsair LPX 8x2 16GB // Gigabyte GTX 970 // Corsair Air 240

My recommendations:

● Use 2x4gb sticks instead of one. You get dual channel performance and you can still upgrade to 4x4gb in the future or even 2x4 and 2x8 if you really need that much.

● How about a r7 370 instead of a gtx 750ti. Same price and a decent amount faster.

About bottlenecking. Since DirectX12 will rely much more on the GPU instead of the CPU the i5 shouldn't be a problem at all even with a GTX980ti.
