upgrade cpu first, you should be able to just drop in a higher end 13th or 14th gen chip with a bios update.

what mobo do you have?

Whats your budget and currency?

For ~300 usd you can get a 14600kf and it would be a good midrange upgrade over what you currently have. 13600kf is also a good option for slightly less. You need a decent cooler for either of them though.

Its RDNA2, its stock way to overclock without a BIOS hack is far too limited. But yeah either way, get a CPU upgrade, and preferably a RAM kit upgrade if you got spares to burn, 32GB is a good upgrade.
