I would try to fit a better GPU in a $1500 build. At least a GTX 1070. I'd probably go i5 + 1070/Ti if I had to.

My thought process was to get a better gpu later. Because at the moment I'm not really playing any games that would demand a high tier gpu

That would be fine.

On second look, I would get a better/bigger SSD and the non-Pro BarraCuda 2TB HDD for half that price.

Thanks for your feedback! Instead of the SSD I put in a Samsung 860 Evo 500 GB and I got the non pro HDD. If you have anything else let me know!
