I am currently running a i5-3570k overclocked to 4.2ghz and a GTX 950, This system does not run newer games very well so I am looking to upgrade my CPU and GPU since the new Call of duty just lags so much with my current setup since i don't have enough VRAM even on lowest settings.

I want to try and stick with the same motherboard and water cooler so the CPU needs to be the LGA 1155 socket. I am looking to spend around 200 or less for the CPU but cheaper is better and the GPU around the same price no more then 300$

I was looking at maybe getting the RX580 but was not sure if my CPU would be bottle necked from that card, if i can get away with just getting a new GPU then that would be fine with me.
