PC build dilemma

I've finally acquired the necessary sacrifices for my ascension ceremony to the glorious Master Race. One problem -- thanks to the latest trend in cryptocurrency mining, gpus are anywhere from 100 ~ 250$ more than their normal price or out of stock... Given that there's no real way of knowing when prices will drop back down or when a card will be temporarily back in stock, I figure it wouldn't be wise to order everything else only to have it sitting around in boxes in my hot ass room for an undetermined amount of time. On the other hand, I kind of want to get the stuff out of the way now. What should I do? Wait for the gpu to be available or buy everything else now? [url=https://pcpartpicker.com/list/PxfZyf]Here's[/url] the build, btw. Update: I bought [url=https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B072BHBRLJ/ref=ya_aw_od_pi?ie=UTF8&psc=1#rebatesPopover_1500071446866]this for 599$[/url] and it should be here Thursday. As for the other shit, there's apparently a spending limit on my bank card, so I have to wait until tomorrow to place my order. I just went and got the 1080 today 'cause I didn't want to miss yet another opportunity. Update 2: All shite has been ordered and [i]should[/i] be here by tomorrow. For kb&m I got a Corsair K70 and Scimitar(spelling?) rgb pro. Update 3: first box of goodies came. Resisting urge to open box of gpu... My other stuff won't be here until Wednesday or Friday, but that's okay as it gives me time to clean my room and reorganize.

    You could always go with a Ryzen 5 1600 and a B350 motherboard, then use the extra money to upgrade to a 1080. Also, you can get a nvme m.2 ssd like the Intel 600p for the same price as the sata drive you have picked.
