Hello everybody.So i purchased this when i was in HS 5 years ago.I twas pretty good at that time.I stopped playing gaming for an while.But recently start playing again and noticed this build is no bueno anymore. Preferably planing to upgrade my gpu and add some ram maybe add hdd .Currently have 75hz monitor planing to purchase 144hz as well.Last game i played was Warzone really liked but can't enjoy game with this build.What do you guys think is this build is still good for upgrades or I should save up bit and make completely new build.

Thank You and stay safe!

Solution
The easiest thing to get is a 6700k or 7700k. If you get a 7700k you'll need to update the bios. Should be fine if you are gaming only. One of those, 16GBs of ram and a 2060/1070ti and you should be good for 1080 gaming.
budget is 500--600$.I was thinking about 2060 or 1660 ti and to add 8 gb ram but im think will not sure will i have bottleneck issue.
CPU will have problems handling those cards, as it does not have a 4 core 8 thread configuration, only 4 core 4 threads.
