Built a PC in 2015 or 2016 with the following Specs:
Intel Core i5 4690K @ 3.50GHz
8.00GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 800MHz Corsair Vengeance
AMD Radeon R9 390 Series (Sapphire
232GB Samsung SSD 850 EVO 250GB (SSD)
931GB Seagate ST1000DM003-1ER162
Sorry just copied from speccy lol.
I have sold this computer and am looking to build a new one for $1500 usd .
I have a monitor, kb, mouse, pad, and headset.
I will be looking to game on this computer (PUBG, Apex Legends, Starcraft 2) and will be using it for Autodesk.
I would like to stay with an Intel Chip too if possible.
If any questions feel free to comment

If you've already got a decent monitor and are determined to go with Intel, I'd look at something like this;
PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant

CPU: Intel - Core i7-8700K 3.7 GHz 6-Core Processor ($375.89 @ OutletPC)
CPU Cooler: be quiet! - Dark Rock Pro 4 50.5 CFM CPU Cooler ($84.99 @ SuperBiiz)
Motherboard: Gigabyte - Z390 AORUS PRO ATX LGA1151 Motherboard ($179.99 @ Amazon)
Memory: Crucial - Ballistix Sport LT 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3000 Memory ($83.69 @ Amazon)
Storage: Intel - 660p Series 1 TB M.2-2280 Solid State Drive ($109.99 @ Newegg)
Video Card: Gigabyte - GeForce RTX 2070 8 GB WINDFORCE Video Card ($498.99 @ SuperBiiz)
Case: Fractal Design - Meshify C Dark TG ATX Mid Tower Case ($94.99 @ Walmart)
Power Supply: SeaSonic - FOCUS Plus Gold 550 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply ($74.99 @ Newegg Business)
Total: $1503.52

If you've not got a high refresh rate and/or high resolution display, I'd probably look at putting some of that $1500 towards a nice new monitor. You could get a 3440x1440 100Hz monitor possibly, or easily get a nice 1440p 144Hz monitor within budget.
