My system is an alright system in the specs 3200 speed ram 1660ti good cooling great power supply 700 watts so you would think with this i could run games well because when benchmarking a system with near specs it runs fortnite average  100 fps all epic settings, but here is the problem MY CPU IS A SECOND GEN I5 2320 so i average at 50 fps. I have a budget for my cpu of 400 dollars What should i upgrade too. It being a lga1155 socket hopefully there is something that is better

Depends on where you are: NewEgg and Amazon almost always offers Processor/Mobo combos. I'd also check for your local computer shops, they might have good ones compared to online retail stores. 

Though with CoVID going on, not sure if they have deals in place.

lga1155 is a pretty old, Id recommend changing the whole MOBO with FCLGA1151 socket. if you are sticking with the lga1155 socket , I think you should go with i7 3770k.
