I discussed building a new computer previously and took some recommendations

I currently have in my build:

Rosewill Challenger ATX mid case
Rosewill hive 750 watt psu
ADATA Ultimate SU800 3D NAND Internal SSD 256GB
Challenger ATX mid case
XFX Radeon Rx 470 Single Fan 4GB GDDR5 True OC 1226MHz
HGST HDS721050CLA362 (0F10381) 500GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0

what im looking to upgrade:

ASRock FM2A75 Pro4-M FM2 AMD A75 + RAM
AMD A6-5400K Trinity Dual-Core 3.6 GHz

possibly upgrade:

HGST HDS721050CLA362 (0F10381) 500GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0

I'm looking for opinions on what would be the best pieces to upgrade to? I was considering i3 or i5 but not sure about a mobo.. my price is around $250-300 total

They don't have 6100 and 6500. But they have 6320 and 6600 which is very close on difference.
As you see the i3 for now is very great performance for value. Some games even gets higher FPS because of the higher clock.

Kaby i3 is supposed to have HyperThreading. Saw a couple benchmarks where it was performing damn near some lower end skylake quad cores.
