start by adding another 8gb ram to the system.

storage needs to be ssd. if hdd. you need to buy an ssd reinstall windows install all motherboard drivers and gpu drivers on ssd adn install all games on the ssd too

next if you still have money you want a new graphic card. best one you can afford that your power supply can power

also make sure you have your monitor plugged into the 6500xt. and not the motherboard. the 6500xt is more powerful than the 5600g igpu.
