The Next step in Upgrading?

CPU: FX-6100
Mobo: ASRock N68-GS4 FX R2.0 (Socket Type: AM3+)

RAM: 1x 8GB DDR3 @937MHz
GPU: AMD RX 550 (4GB XFX)
So I've been planning to upgrade my "Gaming" build, and would like recommendations on what part would be in a good direction.
Thanks :)

can we know how much would you like spending?

the upgrade to a new cpu+ddr4 memory really makes the difference 

you should also consider a gpu

maybe and i3/i5 new gen with 8 gb 2400 ddr4 memory and a 1060 or something in that price range

if you wait 10 h you will see the next lineup of nvidia graphics card

I'm pretty sure there's nothing reasonable that you can add into that pc. You should build a new pc from scratch.
