Hello,

I am aware my hardware is super outdated for gaming, however, still performs to a decent level but is beginning to struggle. I currently have a I5 4570 (3.2ghz) socket LGA1150 the next upgrade for this CPU would be the I7 4790K just trying to get some peoples opinions would it be worth the upgrade?

Or should I maybe upgrade to a LGA1151 with more CPU options, however, I would only have enough for 8gb of ram than 16gb of ram if I was to purchase a new cpu, mobo and ram.

Why not a Ryzen 3800x? Decent performance, fits nicely in your budget.
I have a 4790K at the moment (hoping to upgrade soon). It is decent, but if you want Intel, kight be worth having a look at a second hand 7700K or 8700K.
