Hello, my name is Marcz.
I been thinking about upgrading my pc for a while, since im feeling it getting a bit to slow for my gaming taste. My experince with building/upgrading pc is small to non, so I thought i would ask some geeks on a fourm, to help me out. And here I am xD

My specs are as followed:
Cabinet: Corsair 400C
Motherboard: Asus Prime B250M-A
CPU: Intel I5-7500k
GPU: MSI GTX 1060 6gb gaming X
SSD: Toshiba 240GB A100
RAM: Crucial 2400Mhz DDR4 Ballistix
Powersupply: Corsair VS550 Watt 80+

Would be really glad if you guys could give me some advise, as what to update first, to get the most out of my money and performance :) Thanks

Edit: Budget about $1000, has to be ready for 4k, but for now HD, my CPU isn't over overclocked. My games are as followed, Bf1, AC Origins and Apex Legends. I also wanna be able to edited videos smooth at HD.

Welcome to the forums.

We need to know what budget you have towards your upgrade. Also, what games are you playing? And what screen resolution? Plus, is your CPU overclocked?
 
Seeing that you have an unlocked and reasonably good CPU, I would get a decent cooler for it and overclock it. There's literally thousands of guides on overclocking, give a few a read or watch and see how you feel about having a go with it.

But for 4k gaming you're definitely going to be GPU limited, the GTX1060 is a great 1080p card, but for 4k you're looking at an RTX2080 at least for solid 4k performance.
