If you could only upgrade one or two things, what would you upgrade?

This is a 'old' pc so I am just wondering what would be my best bang for the buck

Prices of the things do not matter so much, but nothing insanely expensive. (400-600$ per part)

Thanks ahead of time

Get a Corsair H100i GTX all-in-one CPU water cooler, and over clock that 2500K

Get a Samsung 850 EVO 250GB SSD, and get a more powerful grfx card.


/e OH, and a monitor. :)

This.
The exception is, if your current gpu is an R9 290.
Then just the SSD and maybe a fancy new cooler to overclock.

h100i coolers seem to have mixed/bad reviews on size/sound?

Any thoughts?
