The GPU should be your first upgrade. Once that's done, the CPU will be the weak link. If you upgrade the CPU now, you'd see less improvement per dollar spent.

For the GPU, the RX480 is good, as is the GTX 1060. However, in your case, even the 1050 Ti would be a worthwhile upgrade.

Once you have the new GPU, then you can start worrying about the CPU if it still isn't fast enough for you. The Core i5-6400 or -6500K are both good options.

You can pick up an MSI RX 480 (Radeon RX 480 4G) right now for 179$ free shipping from Newegg. That is pretty much a no-brainer based on your budget criteria.

Install MSI Afterburner to manage fan speeds.
