I was looking for some advice on what i should upgrade in my pc for improved fps in games like GTA V. my current pc spec is:
CPU - i7 4770k (not overclocked but i am going to soon)
GPU - Asus GTX 960 2gb
RAM - 8gb DDR3 (don't know the brand its really old)
Motherboard - MSI z87 g45
PSU - Corsair GS600
CPU Cooling - Corsair H80iGT
any advice would be great, thanks in advance.

Your only "weak" spot is the gfx card. The GTX 960 is no slouch, but there are faster cards if you want to spend the money. Like the one in my sig below. Since you plan on OC'ing your i7 (and possibly the gfx card), the PSU will limit you for adding a more power-hungry card. While I don't play GTA V, my card/CPU combo allows me to max out settings in another demanding game; Crysis3. I need to keep Anti-Aliasing at a lesser than max level to be 100% smooth 100% of the time, tho.
