I wanna get a good PC, that'll play the newest games on STEAM, preferably from one of those custom built sites but if those are too expensive that's then I won't, anyway I'm looking to spend about 1500, will that be enough or should I keep saving?
Good gaming PC for $1500?

However an i7 gives very little over an i5 in terms of gaming. So if you want to shave a few dollars off go for that.
