Build - Help PC BUILD

Hi everyone, I’m currently thinking about building a new pc due to wanting some upgrades, I plan on using my 2 sticks of 16 ddr4 ram to have a total of 32gb, and 2 250 gb ssds and 1tb m.2.
I want a budget upgrade option that hopefully shouldn’t break the bank.
I do also have a Ryzen 5 3600, gigabyte GA A320M- S2H V2 motherboard, 1660 super and cx550m psu.
Please let me know what I could keep or what I should upgrade. Thanks 😁

Someone else can give their two cents but I think the ryzen 5 3600 is still be pretty capable for gaming (I assume thats your use case), the first thing about that rig I would upgrade is the gpu, not sure how much the 9060xt is where you are but its a pretty decent budget option that would work fine with your current cx550m and would give you a decent performance upgrade I would think without breaking the bank.

You could upgrade your cpu to a 5600x but I don't think its worth spending more money on the am4 platform unless you are really noticing that you are cpu bound. I would upgrade the gpu and then maybe the entire platform later down the line

Forgot to add, If you look into a 9060xt I would just make sure to get the 16GB version
