[SOLVED] Motherboard Upgrade from Gigabyte GA-78LMT-USB3

[JessMN]

Hello
I have been slowly upgrading components on my computer and am at the point where I wonder if I wouldn't be better off upgrading my mobo (and cpu?) as well. I currently have a Gigabyte GA-78LMT-USB3 with an AMD FX-8350 CPU.
These are my other components. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/bGWJ9J
One issue is that my new (as of October) graphics card blocks access to the slot for my wireless card.
I also have some kids who have started gaming on my PC. Hence the new graphics card.

Anyway, I'm not really up on the latest specs for a good mobo/cpu and was hoping someone could give me some advice. I'm willing to entertain a range of prices though a good, moderately priced investment would tolerable, especially if I don't have to buy a bunch of other new things and it will last me for awhile.

Thanks in advance!
Jess

FX is now a dead end , time to move on:

AMD is the best value per $$$.
