i last upgraded my PC a few years ago and have been thinking about doing it again but was wondering what, if anything, would be most beneficial to change.

budget is about £400 for the system.

my current specs are:

i5 4670K @ 4.2 Ghz
Gigabyte Z87X-UD3H
HIS HD 7950 3072MB
Patriot 8GB (2x 4GB) 2133MHz
Corsair RM 650W PSU

Samsung 840 Series Pro 256GB SSD and a couple of 1TB drives for storage.

i'd need a new monitor as well as my current Dell 22" 2209WAf is starting to have some problems. i'm after a 22-24" but not sure on the budget yet.

any help is greatly appreciated.

What do you use it for? What monitor/s?

Keep your eye on RAM usage to see if any games you play + browser open etc are pushing 8GB now.
 
As said you would mainly benefit from a GPU upgrade, obviosuy the budget depends on what cad you'll get. I doubt you'll be pushing 8gb in much. Or a new monitor/extra monitor

use it for gaming mainly and my monitor is a Dell 22" 2209WAf which could probably use replacing as its starting to experience some pixel + power lead issues.
