[Build Ready] I'm upgrading a few components in my machine (GPU/SSD/MB) and would love some feedback!

Build Help/Ready:

What is your intended use for this build? The more details the better.

Gaming and VR. Currently at 1080p but would like to upgrade to 1440p with this rig. It also needs to meet the Oculus minimum requirements for the CV1.

What is your budget (ballpark is okay)?

I've got about $800-1000 to spend on upgrading the machine.

In what country are you purchasing your parts?

US - Texas. I have access to all online retailers and a brick and mortar Microcenter location.

Additional Details:

For this build I already own all parts except the GPU, SSD and Motherboard (these are the components that I need the most feedback on). These 3 new parts come in at around $625 which gives me a little more budget to apply in any areas of weakness that you guys can identify. Please let me know if you see me using anything incompatible or suboptimal. I'm willing to spend the remainder of the budget on other upgrades but I wanted to see what you guys thought would be the best use of the money.

Thanks so much!
