I would suggest upgrading the cpu and motherboard and ram first. The fx series cpus are going to hold you back too much if you upgrading anything else.

My go to would be the r5 3600 as it is pretty cheap compared to the 5600x and it is fast enough to not really have to worry about cpu bottlenecks.
