Upgrade to keep up with my GTX 970 good enough?

[pulver721]

Upgrading my current PC which is about 6 years old. Bought a GTX 970 and 650W ps late 2016, and now i think it is time to update everything else to keep up once i get back home from this deployment. This is what i have in mind:

My question is this: Is there anything else i should consider buying? Replacing?

I mostly play FPS (CoD4 promod, all other Cods, all BFs, etc...)

Take a ryzen 1500x over a i5 7500 mate is my advice.

An extra $30 nets you the 6 core/12 thread 1600 which is generally the best price to performance CPU available.

What are your current pc specs?
You have shared info only about GTX 970 and 650W (not even model names).

Here is what I have (Like I said, bought 6 years ago). https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883220058
I added the EVGA GTX 970 SSC 2.0X (BestBuy) & I forget what brand of PS. Currently on deployment so I'm not at home with the PC.

Ok I see, why you think about upgrading.
Consider adding an SSD also to your upgrade list.
