I'm considering purchasing two separate 8GB sticks of DDR5 RAM. I'm curious if this setup might cause any issues. Here's the specific RAM I'm looking at: Kingston Fury Beast 8GB. Also, here's a link to my current PC build for context: [link]. What do you all think?

Getting 2x8GB is typically better than going for 1x16GB, although both options are generally not as good as having 2x16GB. For your budget, this should work fine. Just a heads up though, avoid that 2.5" SSD; it’s overpriced and not great. An NVMe SSD would be a much better choice, and there are some good options available.
I don’t completely agree. If you get 2x8GB, you'll likely have to upgrade sooner. Could end up being more costly in the long run, especially with RAM prices being so high.
