So in 2013 I built my PC (well got help building)

Below is my PC's Spec:

CPU - Intel core i5-3570k 3.40GHz
Motherboard - ASUSTek P8Z77-V LX
RAM - 8GB DDR3
GPU - Geforce GTX 670 4GB

In my mind my PC is still running well and capable of running recent games at decent settings, but I feel like its time for an upgrade what should be the first thing I do?

This is the first PC I have built and now want to pro-long its life and get it to the standard of how it was when I first got it.

I mean more RAM makes sense but what else seems like it could do with an upgrade?

Any help would be great.

Thanks

Your CPU is perfectly capable. RAM isn't an issue here; 8GB is enough for 99% of games. It's time for a GPU upgrade. A 970 will do nicely, allowing you to max out any game at 1080p with good framerates. What is the make and manufacturer of your PSU?
