What should my next upgrade be?

[lookpuppy]

I’m looking into upgrading my pc (already buying ssd) and I want some more performance to come out of this budget boy. I was thinking a new gpu? Anyways, can someone recommend budget parts to be, that would improve performance (maybe sub 150$ gpu) I’ve overclocked my cpu to 4.0

390(x)

much better than a new 580 like i suggested  

 

well actually, userbenchmark puts it 2% ahead... the fury x is only 15% ahead too... 

 

maybe he should go 580?

R9 290x for 80$ and a cx550 (2017) for 50$

 

other GPUs you can get R9 390x for about 90-100$.
