Happy Turkey day yall!

With all the deals this weekend I am thinking of upgrading my old 2 year old build. I do not know too much about computers and am hoping those more knowledgeable will be able to preach some!

I mainly use my computer for gaming and do not plan on overclocking it.

My current build:
mobo - ASRock h77 Pro4/MVP (LGA 1155)
psu - Neo Eco 520w
cpu - Intel i-5 3470 Ivy Bridge
HDD - Seagate 500 GB
OEM - Windows 7
Ram - Corshair 8g ddr3
gpu - Gigabyte AMD Radeon HD 7800

I am thinking of maybe getting a new cpu, maybe gpu, ssd and a new psu.

I am really just wanting to be able to game at medium settings for a couple more years and maintain my build

Any input on what to upgrade would be very helpful!
 
I would just look at upgrading the gpu, and possibly getting an ssd. There's some pretty good deals on 390's going on.

Everything else is fine. Besides, if your going to spend money on a new cpu, you might as well get a skylake. That would mean upgrading mobo/ram as well.

Edit: Forgot the psu, definately couldnt hurt to upgrade that. Heres a list with some great info on what to get. I would say min 500w if you upgrade the gpu. http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/id-2547993/psu-tier-list.html
