Here's what I would do with that budget.
Highcom 4SAS7 (10x12 shooter's cut, single curve): $160/each, with 20% discount code (AR15.com), comes out to $512
https://highcomsecurity.com/collections/plates/products/guardian-4sas-7?variant=361422057
For $32 more per set of plates, you could go with the more comfortable multi-curve plates.
GGG Minimalist PC: $115/each, comes out to $230
https://greyghostgear.com/collections/plate-carriers/products/minimalist-plate-carrier?variant=38220867015
You'll be just over $750 for both setups including the shipping from GGG.
Good luck with your rebuild.
