Hi I'm looking to upgrade my current Build in line with some more modern components to help performance and give the PC a new lease of life but I feel I'm at a fork in the road:

Current build:
Mobo
: Asus H110M K D3
Ram: HyperX Fury Ddr3 1600 2x8gb (×2)
CPU: i5-6400
GPU- AMD RX480
PSU: EVGA600
SSD: Hyperx Fury 240gb
HDD: Toshiba P300 2 TB
Monitor: Samsung LU28H750UQUXEN
Case: Game Max Nero MATX ( Happy to increase size)

Looking to keep the SSD / HDD and Monitor.

Budget £500-650 ( potentially more due to resale of old parts)


Unsure what to focus on first, the obvious choice seems to get my Mobo and Ram to DDR4/ ATX
Then I can focus on CPU/GPU, or if there is still life within these and I should focus on something else.
Predominately used for gaming, Triple A titles, RTSs and Total War ect

What do you use the rig for btw? Just gaming or anything more CPU intensive like video editing, rendering etc at all? If so then you'll want the 3700X which is an extra £130 on top of the 3600 CPU price. If just gaming then the 3600 is perfect.

Thanks for the suggestions, predominately gaming, storage and movie watching so nothing too CPU intensive. Would my current PSU be compatible with the suggestions above ?
