Add another single 8GB 1600Mhz if you currently have a 8GB single stick,.they shouldn't be too expensive, gives you dual channel spec (faster than single channel by decent margins)

Then chase a locked 4790 4C8T 3.7Allcore 4Ghz Turbo because K-skews are way too overpriced.

Why do you want to upgrade? Want better graphical performance? then gpu. Want better multitask performance? see what's limiting you cpu or ram. Upgrading a system to be better only matters if it doesn't meet what you need.

What is the use case? You may want to consider both ram and cpu.

i just upgraded the gpu i think there is a cpu bottleneck 

but i think i will upgrade the ram to 16gb and late the cpu

maybe a used i7

Why upgrade the ram if you're cpu limited? 1660 super with an older i5 doesn't seem that bottlenecked. Are you playing at 144hz? is so then yeah cpu probably makes sense. Is your ram single channel?

Ram bottleneck would probably cause stutters before cpu.
