So i've bought this "Gaming-PC" from the company "Gigabyte" like 10 years ago and i'd like to know if its worth it to upgrade.

Current Stuff:

"Gigabyte" GA970 Board with AM3+ Socket (i'll look up the exact name when i'm home)
CPU unknown atm
2x HD6000 series Graphic cards. together via crossfireX 4GB
8GB DDR3 RAM

Would it be worth to upgrade a FX9590 (best AM3+ CPU i could find), a GTX1080ti and 32GB DDR3 RAM?

Or should i get a new board to fit an 8th Gen i7?

I dont need the BEST graphics, i just want to play new games with a good performance on mid to high settings.

Yeah don't match that high-end hardware with an AMD FX. The IPC on that CPU architecture blows!
