Some advise on my current system

[smithy83]

as the title says realy looking for some advise on my current system looking to future proof and wondering what should my next upgrade option shoould be

i7 6700k 4.8ghz
16gb DDR4 3200MHZ Corsair Vengence
MSI Carbon motherboard
500gb Samsung Evo 960 nVme 4tb segate 5200rpm
MSI Geforce 1070 (2060 overclocked core)
650w evga moduler psu

The pc is fine as for 1080p but starting to feel the 6700k is getting long in the tooth and want to up the res up in games

If i was to upgrade a budget of around £1500 (this is flexable tho) cpu mobo extra ram? new cooler and gpu ? and some quite fans bot bothered about RGB

Cant remember the model but its a samsung 1080p 24inch va panel

so graphics card and monitor is the better option? just worried about these new cpus with there much higher core/thread counts dont want to be left behind with a 4c/8t cpu

any thoughts on a good GPU and monitor combo? would like some new fans for my cooler x2 120mm would be needed

Currently playing doom will be picking up doom eternal also picked up the Xbox for windows game pass so going on to metro exodus

Also world of Warcraft but that’s not much of a power house lol

Just noticed the power needed for 2080 650w I do have a decent one but wondering I should go for a newer higher power can work it into the budget

This seems to be getting a bit more complicated lol never really thought about amdand free sync

Power supply I think is evga650 gold 80+ Will have to take a look after work in the morning

I guess we are in the wait and see part of the year
