should i upgrade cpu to 8th gen i3 or i5? 

should i get gtx 1060 or wait for volta cheap gpus?

You don't need a CPU upgrade, but getting a 1060 would be a fine choice.

1060 or you can look at a 780ti which will boast a little better performance with a higher TDP and lower cost secondhand.

Get a graphics card yes. Check your motherboard for connectivity, and check your power supply is decent or that will be the first step for sure.

A CPU upgrade is unnecessary. Just get a 1060, 580 or a used 980 Ti (If you can find one for a good price) 

is there a big diffrence between gtx 1060 6gb and gtx 980? cuz 980 it more expinsive 

The 980 Ti is faster, but if it's more expensive, just get a 1060 6GB.

Your CPU is fine. Get a GPU.

not worth upgrading from a 7400 to an i3 8100 since they both have the same core count. an i5 8400 will perform much better but judging from your last question you probably have a weaker GPU so not worth it as you won't see a performance increase. i'd get a 1060 or 580 for performance.

I have a 6400 and a gtx 1060 myself and id say get the 1060. and if you havent already got 16gb of ram, get 16gb of ram because i was getting really slow frame rates on BF1 and cod ww2 for instance and since i upgraded from 8 tot 16 i got really good results
