Hello, I have a setup like this:

  • CPU: Intel 4470k
  • Ram: 16gb DDR3
  • SSD: Kingston 120GB

Only you can really answer that. Are you having issues with your current hardware?
Also, the 4470k doesn't exist. So. Unless you have something classified, hard to say either way ;)

If you were to upgrade, you should wait until 9th gen. I believe (I may be wrong) that gen will have in-silicon spectre and meltdown mitigations.

And on the first day god said: "Cue one GO" And there was light!

I'd upgrade that GPU. I'm still rolling with my 2600k, 16GB DDR3 and an SSD, but I've got a 1080Ti that runs everything on max with enough fps for my 100hz monitor. These old CPUs still have a fair bit of life left in them.
