Edit: reigniting this as I am thinking of doing a fresh install of Windows; and whilst I know tricks are available to upgrade my 4790k to Win11, I don't want future hassle.
Can anyone tell me what setup I could aim for second hand re-using my GPU?

Hi folks,
Any sense in upgrading bits of this? I am upgrading to a 34" Alienware monitor and predicting some issues. I mainly play CS2, but also play Battlefield very occasional (not for about 9 months tho lol).
Anything that may make a noticeable impact?
Core i7 4790k @ 4Ghz
MSI Gaming 7 Motherboard
32GB RAM - can't seem to find the receipt as to what this is
AMD RX 5700 XT 8GB (but it is a 5700 flashed to XT)
I hadn't realised quite how old the CPU is (2015!!). Perhaps I am due a full refresh...
