and I'm planing to upgrade to the one on the list.

And I want to upgrade my gpu from a gtx 1060 to something better but I'm not entirely sure on what to upgrade to.

List is private and PSU LISTED EVGA 500W IS A 3 OUT OF 10.

Sorry I'm new at this I fixed it. Also why is that 3 out of 10.

You are handcuffing yourself with that build the second you hit pay. What is your budget?

I actually bought this build a few years ago with the cpu being a recent upgrade.
My current bugdet for new parts is around $500

For a GPU upgrade you will want to wait until the nVidia Super's are released and the Radeon 5700/XT has 3rd party cooled cards released. Your CPU cooler is pretty weak and should be upgraded to at least a 212 EVO. The PSU in the list is a good one.

Yes that is the HSF I was talking about. It is basically one of the best budget coolers you can get.

Ok, I'm actually planning on make a second build for my sister useing the parts I'm replacing And I was going to use the stock cooler that came with the i5-7500 I replaced with the i7 7700k but replacing my current cooler with the 212 Evo and giving her that one maybe a better option.

Its a decent build. The 7700k is still a good gaming chip. A new GPU would give you a nice boost. But still a solid build in 2019.
