so i want to upgrade my pc:-case Nox Vulcan

-Power supply 500w (but i think it is a bad one)

-Cpu Amd-FX-6300 Six core 3.5Ghz 95W Am3+

-Gpu 1050 Ti 4Gb

-MotherBoard ASROCK N68-GS4,AMD,AMD 3+

-HDD TOSHIBA 3.5 1TB SATA3 6gb/s 7200RPM

-Ram: 8GB 1600Mhz CL11 DIMM

and i would like to know what is the best upgrade for price/preformance.
My budget is around 500$ to 600$

I'd reuse the case, HDD & GPU. This upgrade would perform much better if you were to overclock the CPU.

With either of these upgrades make sure you do a clean install of Windows.

I´m sry for asking all of this questions but do i need to buy a better cooler? mine is a a weak cooler i don´t know , but if the amd-fx 6300 came with a cooler it´s probably it that is cooling my components.
The Ryzen 1600 stock cooler is good so there's no reason to replace that however the stock Intel one isn't very good so you may want to consider a aftermarket one that fits your case.
