This is a tough one...The GPU would make the biggest difference straight away but if you could stretch the the 1660Ti for about £50 to £60 more even better as it has quiet a bit more performance on offer. Then later add a 6 core 9400F. Also worth checking the prices of the RX 590 as I believe they have really dropped and it matches the 1660.

Oh and another 8GB would be good too especially if you are not running dual channel with your current RAM.
