Pretty balanced build. Honestly I'd just hold off on upgrading anything, especially if you're playing at 1080p and lower refresh rates.

Save up, and upgrade next year when we have an idea of what AMD's AM5 platform looks like.

My recommendation: Upgrade everything else except GPU. You'll GPU will be fine now and you'll be ready to upgrade GPU in future.
