So I currently build a budget gaming computer awhile back, put it all together, was my first computer, spent around $950 with the addition of a keyboard, mouse, mousepad, and a new headset.
The computer itself is composed of these parts:
Now I am looking for upgrades for any of the parts, looking mainly at a mobo/CPU upgrade because my mobo's SATA cables are really painful because my GPU is big that it sits basically on top of my SATA ports making it a pain to plug in SATA stuff.
So with the upgrade of a mobo I want a CPU upgrade, not looking for anything too crazy, just want a better mobo with a better CPU. Might look into overclocking the CPU but I have no experience:
Current mobo:

Current CPU:

Is there any real need for an upgrade? I'm not having performance issues, I just want something faster (CPU wise and a better mobo if possible).
