Ni point in getting a new cpu if you’re still using the 390.  That’s still gonna be the bottleneck.  I know GPUs are unobtainable ATM, but since that’s the case I would just wait build a new system till like next year.  New fabs have been under construction for over a year so just hang tight a bit longer and you will be rewarded.  The CPU market is lowkey kinda dogwater rn too, since the 12600k only has expensive mobos, the 5600x is a bit overpriced, and we never saw meaningful price drops on the 3600.  All that should change when AM5 is a thing, and b660 mobos are a thing.  The 4770k and the 390 are a good pairing, i would’nt waste your money getting a new platform when your reusing a GPU.  You’d be super disappointed with your framerate.

I edit the shit out of my posts.  Refresh before you respond.

I added a psu recommendation, just in case you haven't upgraded that in the past couple of years or so.
