2x8GB DDR3 1600, DeepCool AG400 cpu cooler. To be honest I would build a new PC with your budget instead of investing money in your current PC. What country are you located and what is the primary uses of your PC?

If you really want to keet the cpu, just get whatever ddr3 you can find used. you don't need a great cpu cooler for that either, but if you want something future proof, thermalright peerless assassin is a great value choice. With that platform you'd have to get a sata ssd, since it doesn't support nvme. Basically just find a good price to capacity ratio drive from a reputable brand and you're good to go. For the gpu, I'd look for a deal on an rx 6000 series part like the 6800. Technically amd recommends a 650w psu for that, but if your current one isn't trash, you'll be fine.
