Guidance please

I am finally biting the bullet to build a new PC after somehow surviving off an ancient GTX 960 since 2016. It's safe to say there is not a single salvageable part in my PC except my ssds.

I know it is an absolutely HORRIBLE time to build a pc but I think I just have to live with this since my PC has 1 foot in the grave. I want to use my PC for gaming but I'm also planning on using a lot of CAD products and I'm hoping for some perspectives on the parts I am planning on getting at the moment since I am not necessarily an expert in the subject. Please help!

note** My budget was aiming for $1500 but this build has ended up being $1700 after tax
