New motherboard and new CPU for sure.

You need to decide on AMD or Intel...if you have a preference.

Maybe new RAM too?

You need newer architecture.
Maybe i5 13400F or something.
It means new motherboard as well.
Possibly DDR5 RAM , possibly not , but even if you were to remain on DDR4 it would probably be better to take something faster.
300-350$ I think.
With new RAM 450-500$ if 32gigs and if DDR5
