Hi everyone, I've posted in some other threads before on upgrading my PC. I got a new GPU not too long ago which works fairly well for what I'm doing. Recently, I got interested in new parts to boost performance a bit. I'll give a full list on my ideas and show what I already have. I'll take any comments, suggestions, thanks for your help!

Current Specs List: Pre-built PC XPS 8500
CPU | Intel Core i7-3770 @ 3.4GHz w/Turbo
MB | Dell Inc. 0NW73C A01
RAM | Hynix 8GB(2x4GB Dual Channel) DDR3-1600
GPU | Gigabyte RX 560 Gaming OC 4GB
SSD | Samsung 860 EVO 1TB
PSU | Standard 460W, unknown model

Looking to Upgrade:
CPU | i5-9600k
MB | Gigabyte Z390 AORUS ELITE ATX LGA1151
RAM | G.Skill Ripjaws V Series 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200
Might also consider a new GPU sometime down the road...
GTX 1060, GTX 1070, RX 580, RX 590
 
Go with the GTX 1660/1660Ti instead of the GTX 1060/70 line or the AMD Navi line when those are released. The GPUs you listed there are all based on a 3 year old design. I would also save a few bucks and use an AMD 2600X & X470 motherboard and put the savings into the better GPU.

Alright, would a 460W PSU be good still?
