    Default $1500 budget

    I currently have a 15.3" laptop with i7, 1050ti and 8 gigs of ram, I absolutely love the portability and easy setup but miss the POWER. Anyways Im in the US use newegg and have 1500 American dollars to spend: I think I hit the magic combo here. Any suggestions for improvement would be welcome (I will be playing the division 2 eventually) keeping within the $1500 budget

    I would get a nvodea 2070 or a 2060, but I understand that might go over budget

    This build is what I recommend, and later on, in the year you can pop the new ryzen CPU and get fantastic performance.

    Wait! I do not see any M.2 drive, just the WD-Blue spinning disk in your original post. I would replace that drive or add in a Samsung 500GB M.2 that is compatible with that motherboard. You are talking OS load times in seconds and game loading times reduced dramatically as well. Steve's reply is good and accounts for this.
