I currently have a amd fx 8350 cpu

some random am3+ mobo and 16 gigs of ram

Its all i think i need video card is a 1070

power supply is a corsair 1000watt

so i guess im asking for around 600 can i get a decent mobo chip and some ram or should i just keep what i got ?

Also im not completly opposed to trying an intel processor though amd has always had more of a bang for a budget

If your not maxing out your cpu usage wait.
Otherwise a used 4-6k series intel with mobo and ram would be a 30-50% increase.

I'm sitting with a 3770k and tbh I have zero need to upgrade though I just might get this 9k series cause I'm tired of waiting.
