My computer has seen better days. I've been thinking about upgrading parts to bring myself back into PC gaming. So far I'm thinking about buying a new GPU and some fans, but wanted to know if there was anything else that might be worth upgrading. I'm not trying to do any 4k gaming, just enough to run popular games at decent quality.

CPU
Intel Core i5 3570K @ 3.40GHz 43 °C
Ivy Bridge 22nm Technology
Motherboard
ASRock Z77 Extreme4 (CPUSocket)
GPU
2048MB ATI AMD Radeon HD 7800 Series (XFX Pine Group)

I've got enough RAM And storage space, any suggestions would be helpful.

overclock the cpu and get a new Nvidia/AMD card

My 660 ti is still good enough for Overmeme and other Blizzard games I play, but I wanna upgrade to either a new card or a 380X for max settings.

Any suggestions on which ones? I've been looking through some newer ones but I'd only be going based on reviews. Computer ran well when I bought it and I never thought to overclock. I'll look into it thanks

Does anyone make a 4k curved monitor

depends on your screen and what you wanna play

My 660 ti has worked wonders the last 4 years until I felt like I wanted to max Overwatch.
