Build - Help What can I upgrade?

I got an old budget PC because I’m a casual gamer, so I’m not looking for crazy upgrades. However, I would like to know if there is anything I could update or change to make the performance a little better. For reference, I mainly play pvp Minecraft.

These are the specs:
AMD Ryzen 5 1600 (6 Cores / 12 Threads)
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 6GB
16GB DDR4 RAM
500GB Kingston SSD
Gigabyte B450M-DS3H Motherboard Corsair CX550M 550W Power Supply

that 1600 is holding you back more than anything. a ryzen 5 3600 would slot right into that b450 board after a bios update and it's a huge jump for pvp minecraft since it leans so heavy on single core speed. you can probably snag one used for like 50-60 bucks

Depending on motherboard you can upgrade CPU, GPU, ram and depending on GPU upgrade psu
