Honestly idk what is your Mid-tier gaming LOL. Battlefield? Fortnite? PUBG?

Prices are from Best Bargain / PCThemes. Could probably get cheaper from TradePac, or source different parts online (Lazada/Qoo10/Prime Now/Shopee etc)

Mobo+CPU: Gigabyte B450M-DS3H + Ryzen 5 2600: $352
RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws V 2666MHz (4gb x 2): $119
CPU Cooler: - (Use stock cooler): $0
GPU: GALAX GTX 1060 6GB O.C Black Twin Fan: $339 (It's $309 on Lazada right now)
PSU: Seasonic M12II 520 80+ Bronze: $99
SSD: Samsung 860 EVO 250GB: $89
Total: $968-$998

Don't think you'll need 16GB ram right now.

Edited:
Eh Apologies. The mobo+CPU is actually $352, not 330. I pak jiao.
