So, I currently have an am4 motherboard, a ryzen 5 1600, 16GB corsair vengeance 2400mhz, a rx 580 gfx card, m2 harddrive, I have 750usd, what should I upgrade to maximize my gaming and recording experience.

Thanks

High performance, consistent uptime and fast support. Minecraft hosting that just works.

Obviously your cpu needs to go. If you want to reuse your rx580 then I suggest buying another one for crossfire. Buy a 512gb ssd? And if you want to you can upgrade your ram to ddr4 at 3000 but in my opinion this isn’t needed.
I just alternate hard drives, m2 is faster than the 512GBssd, what cpu do you reccomend?

I have no idea if this will benefit you but maybe consider swapping the 2400mhz ram for 3000? I know it's a pricey but you would still have room to buy a 2700x as suggested by eLevate. I reckon the graphics card you have is fine but if you really wanna upgrade it go ahead in the end it's all up to you.[DOUBLEPOST=1546705587][/DOUBLEPOST]Also I completely forgot to mention if you do buy the 2700x maybe invest in some decent water cooling so you can do a bit of overclocking.

the rx580 needs to go, upgrade to a better amd card or a 1070 used for like $200-250, or a 1070ti/1080/1080ti
upgrade the ram to 3000
the cpu is honestly fine but you could upgrade it. wait for ces and Ryzen 3rd Gen, it blows the socks off intel. 6 cores in a ryzen 3
