First and foremost my current Specs:

CPU: AMD FX 6300 six core
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650
RAM: 8GB DDR3
1TB HDD
and an ASUSTeK M5a97 R2.0

Now i was wondering what the next really useful upgrade would be (mostly for Gaming, I am a Graphic designer but the current Specs are enough for what i do.) with a budget of about 200€/175£/230$ or if i should wait 1-2 months so i can ~double the budget.

Thanks in advance!

btw. Im getting a 64GB SSD never the less.

I think yiu can invest for example on a gtx1050Ti and it would be a good improvement. But start saving money for a new cpu, mb and Ram.. a Ryzen 1700 would be a huge improvement for you.
Usually the SSd where you install windows is also used for prigrams that start when you start your computer. Like GeForce Experience, your keyboard or mouse management software, any antivirus that you install, stuff like that. 64Gb seem enough at first but Philip Corcoran is right. In time it will be almost full. My advice is at least 120Gb. Your call though.
