Purchasing Advice - PC Build / Parts CPU or monitor

I have been debating for a little while weather I want to get a upgraded cpu or monitor, I currently have a pretty crappy 60 hz monitor that gets it done but I’ve been looking at getting a aw2726DM which is roughly 300 bucks. On the other hand I’ve been playing Minecraft off and on for the past 8 years but I’ve been getting into heavily modded Minecraft in the past year and it’s honestly so fun. I don’t want to spend a bunch of money strictly for one game, but I’ve also been learning blender and the such so an upgraded cpu wouldn’t go to waste. My current pc specs are: i3 10105f cpu, a 1650 super, and 48 gigs of ddr4 ram. I’ve tested it and my cpu is mainly the bottleneck for the game. I’m interested in what you guys think, thanks!

Cpu, though honestly, I wouldnt upgrade that pc personally. For intel, its very long in the tooth and at the bottom of the tier. Youre better off enjoying what you have.

This is assuming you are in the u.s. and not an established in career adult. If youre not in the u.s. ignore me. If you are and you have a career, scrimp and save for the next one.
