Desktop components

I'm new to the group. I'm thinking about building a mid-range gaming desktop and need help. I have some computer knowledge but never built a pc before. My pc now is a 10+ year old Cyberpowerpc. I don't really play any games but did years ago mainly Call of Duty which I will probably get this time. Anyway, my budget is around 1200-1400. I only need the desktop. I want to reuse my two 27" LG monitors and transfer the 1TB SATA SSD running Windows 10. I also want a full size ATX MB. I have been to pcpartspicker but I don't really know which components to select.

What do you think of this? Its probably overkill for my needs but hopefully will last a while and will be easily upgradeable.

The 120mm fan goes inside the back of that case for a rear exhaust fan.
