Are you buying a monitor: No
Parts to Upgrade: intending to buy a Ryzen 5 1600, ROG Strix B350 MB, Corsair Vengeance lpx16gb

Preferred Website(s) for Parts: newegg.com

The cpu and motherboard and ram purchase will max out that budget very quickly. A bigger impact on your gaming performance would be a new graphics card like a gtx 1060 6gb. The ryzen 5 2400g is the newest cpu out for the AM4 socket from AMD if you're set on upgrading that.

I'd go with something like this, hopefully the Asus will be shipped with the newer BIOS to support the 2400G.

Sorry about that, as to my budget I plan ti increase it to $1000. I have some money saved up.

With inflated GPU prices I wouldn't go much more then the 1050 ti however with a larger budget you could get the i7-8700K.
