You may want to throw that in PCPartPicker and send a link to that build list. You may also find better pricing since you posted it.
A few follow-up Qs:

1) What OS (or OSes?)
2) What games in particular are you looking at playing?
3) Do you have a budget in mind?

There's also room to make choices where you may not lose much in performance, if at all.
For example, The i7-8700K does quite well and still cheaper than the 8086K. Or maybe wait for 9th gen, rumored to be next month.
1200W PSU is likely overkill for that. If you enter all of this into PCPartPicker I'll wager that's well under 500W - meaning a 750W PSU may do all you need.
And for the RTX I'm a big supporter of not buying until reviews come out, unless you have cash to burn on this.

Hope this helps!
