So as the title states I am seeking advice on possible upgrades or any overclocking tuning I can improve on etc. 

My specs and Benchmark stats are below if anyone has advice I'd appreciate it.

Normally I play warzone or Assassins Creed: Valhalla and while I get to play them at great quality, my system still has a lot of room for improvement until I can max settings and get the 144 refresh I was looking for, for now I was able to squeeze about High graphics preset equivalent settings out while getting a constant 80 fps, I got to 90 fps pretty steady after I overclocked.

Your CPU is good, it's actually being held back by the GPU. Unfortunately, GPU market is really rough. If you're 1080p gaming, you can look for a RTX 3060TI/RX 6700XT. For 1440p, I would recommend at least a RTX3070.
