Which hardware components should I update best?

Heyho people i have a question about my pc hardware.

I've installed an AMD FX-8320e overclocked to 3.5ghz (turbo is disabled) cooled by an upHere 120mm all in one water cooling which keeps the cpu nice and cool. Graphics card is a Radeon RX-480 with 8gb which is known for its enormous heat development, before that I had a Geforce 960GTX 4gb which had too little power for my use. Then there are still 16Gb DDr3 Ram in the dual channel 1600mhz, but according to Bios clocked at 800mhz per channel. Mainboard is an ASRock N68-GS4 / USB3 FX which is easy to overlook in my case because the mainboard is way too small for it. As a case, I have the Corsair Obsidian 800D but I want to keep because I like the simple desing. Then I only have a 128gb Intel SSD and a 1TB HDD. Power supply delivers around 800 watts so I have enough room.

I use the PC to play and stream on Twitch with OBS Studio. When I stream in Black Ops 4 I usually have over 60 fps but sometimes as small jerks but the FPS number does not drop down on the jerks.

My question now what should I upgrade for more in-game performance and streaming? Keep in mind that I do not have so much money so please do not bring i9 as a suggestion. Thank you. I would also like to buy used parts but most from AMD because I personally prefer AMD rather than Intel.

I would upgrade the RAM to DDR4 and possibly think about 32 GB

Then I would theoretically need a new board and cpu but which kompnennten

Ba

32 Kit is usually too much

Li

Then only with a Dremel ne notch in the DDR4 RAM milling, so that fits well…

The CPU and later the graphics.

This would be in the budget:

It would be a little more expensive with the Ryzen 5 3600 coming on the 7th of July. This one has higher single core and multi core performance.

B450 board, r5 2600, 16gb RAM is in your budget and brings a lot of power over your current system

Hey thank you the cart direct times saved I look at the beginning of the month as it is with money and what the new ryzen would cost more and then I look which combi I take

es

200 euro is the currently known price

For OC, I would add NEN Arctic Freezer 34 or a Ben Navis.

Maybe even take the tomahawk.

Cooler I have an all in one wakü just installed my cpu perfect cools in Prime 95 maximum 48grad and I still have so much other water cooling parts with me 2 balancing tank where a direct ne pump has in it, an extra pump, 1radiator for 3 120mm fan, 1Radiator for 1 120mm fan, various cool blocks, etc. So cooling power I would have no end. Will soon cool my graka with water because in bo4 always over 70 degrees very often over 80 is me too much

@TechnicGuru I still have a question about your first configuration with the ASRock board. Is there a vlt board a bit cheaper but the components still harmonize well? What would be best if instead of 4 ram slots I take one with only 2? Or what I personally do not need synonymous 2 Graka slots. But what would be the advantage if I could still tickle a few mhz with oc from the cpu (wens is necessary otherwise remains original) Thank you in advance schonma

Of course you can also look at reviews and tests in the net.
