Suggested upgrades for older Desktop HP p6607c

[backface]

Hi guys, I'm looking for some suggestions on how I can get a bit more performance out of an old desktop machine that I am using as a backup.

I do some 3D stuff, but really I would be happy if this machine could run Photoshop CC without lagging.

I think probably I would need to replace the motherboard and CPU, but really I don't know which kind.

Original Spec:
Motherboard: M2N68-LA (Narra5)
Processor: Athlon II X2 220
Memory: 4GB
Graphics: Integrated NVidia GeForce 6150SE

I already upgraded the Power Supply and Graphics card:
Cooler Master eXtreme Power Plus 500w
EVGA GeForce GTX 750Ti SC 2GB GDDR5

The machine is running Windows 10.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions

as you have a GPU and a PSU you could always consider Neweggs refurbished systems. for $115, you can get a system that is faster, will take the PSU and GPU.

Thanks for the suggestion, seems like an inexpensive upgrade.

What kind of performance improvement do you think I should expect if I install this CPU?
