Upgrade the cpu to an i5 4690K or such and a z97 mobo, upgrade the gpu to a gtx 970, throw in a samsung 840 evo 250gb.

 

Just a couple ideas.

Specs: CPU - Intel i7 8700K @ 5GHz | GPU - Gigabyte GTX 970 G1 Gaming | Motherboard - ASUS Strix Z370-G WIFI AC | RAM - XPG Gammix DDR4-3000MHz 32GB (2x16GB) | Main Drive - Samsung 850 Evo 500GB M.2 | Other Drives - 7TB/3 Drives | CPU Cooler - Corsair H100i Pro | Case - Fractal Design Define C Mini TG | Power Supply - EVGA G3 850W

1. SSD

2. New CPU

3. New GPU

Ranked as 1 being most important

Nvidia is to Dr Dre Beets as AMD is to KFC.

One makes you broke, the other you can get more of and have a midnight snack from the fridge when hungry again. Once you go Nvidia, you go broked, turn into an Elitist, or get the incorrect amount of VRAM.

 I was only 9 years old. I loved Fifflaren so much, I had all the NiP merchandise and matches pirated. I prayed to Fifflaren every night before bed. Thanking him for the life I have been given. Fifflaren is love I say. Fifflaren is life. My dad hears and calls me a fuckhead. I knew he was just jelly of my passion for Fifflaren. I called him a Sw@yer. He hits me and sends me to go to sleep. I'm crying now, and my face hurts. I lay in bed and it's really cold. A warmth is moving towards me. I feel someone touching me. I feel someone touching me. It's Fifflaren. I am so happy. He whispers in my ear; "this is my pyjama". He grabs me with his powerful Swedish hands and puts me on my hands and knees. I'm ready. I spread my ass cheeks for Fifflaren. He penetrates my butt-hole. It hurts so much but I do it for Fifflaren. I can feel my butt tearing as my eyes start to water. I push against his force. I want to please Fifflaren. He roars a viking roar as he fills my butt with his love. My dad walks in. Fifflaren looks straight into his eyes and says; "He is a ninja now". Fifflaren is love, Fifflaren is life

Seems like a perfectly fine and balanced setup to start with. I'd hold off and just buy basically all new components down the road. What specifically are you trying to do that your machine is too slow for? Unless such a thing exists, there's no need to upgrade.

 

The only thing I'd consider with what you have is an SSD, but even that's not really important for gaming.

every part of your builds pretty balanced nothing stands out as needing an upgrade I think I'd simply suggest a new headset like HyperX Clouds

Throw in an SSD and upgrade the CPU. I'd suggest the 8350 if you want to stay AMD, but i'd recommend going with a 4690K. There are some good 120GB SSDs that can be had for under $100.

You do realize you can Quote someone and reply to them in the same message right? and there's even a multi quote button just click it for everymessage you wanna quote on your way down then clock the "click to reply to X messages" button and the quotes will all appear preformatted for you xD  just trying to help you learn also you can edit quotes to shorten your message to make it easier for other to read or just @ <Enter name here> will tag them is another way of replying to them xD

Ya ok I'll probably just get a SSD because my HDD is really slow, then wait till the new gen becomes cheaper.
