Hi! Building a gaming PC for a friend, looking to spend about 1300$ USD. Will need to include a monitor as well. He’s looking to play some AAA and some esports games, was trying to get a 1440 setup with ability to upgrade in the future. Would you make any changes to what I’ve put together?

I have two 1TB drives (Crucial P5 for system, P3 for Games), and as long as you have a good Internet connection, it's not hard to manage space. I am fortunate to have 1Gbps for a decent price in my area, for example.

That said, if you don't have a good internet connection (< 200Mbps), having more storage to keep games installed is probably the better option.
