Upgrading my setup

[Maddys Optiforce]

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

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
