Budget: ~600$ (without tax)

Location: Hungary ( central europe ) 

Aim: Its for work (programming) / gaming / streaming every now and then. 

Monitors: Currently 2* FullHD @ 60Hz (and a 4k tv but thats only for movies), will buy a 144Hz FullHD when I upgrade the GPU too. 

Peripherals: I dont need any peripherals atm. 

Why are you upgrading?

My current SPEC is outdated. ( Core2Duo @ 2,8Ghz, 4gb DDR2 RAM (no way to add more), GTX760 2Gb, 5600 rpm 500gb HDD )

 

Build plan:

Gona use my old 500gb HDD and the GTX760 from my old rig. 

Will upgrade to 16 gb memory, a new GPU and add a 144Hz monitor in a year or so. 

Will this CPU limit my GPU if I upgrade to something high end? I really need the cores for work atm so I cant take a lower core count CPU, but Im a bit worried that it will limit my upgrades in the future.
