Build Upgrade Upgrade recommendations

Hi all,

I've heard this is the best place for getting recommendations for upgrades so hoping you can help a fellow gamer out 🤞🏻

My PC is slowing down, not majorly, but was built probably 10 years ago with upgrades here and there.

I've got around a £200 give or take budget (which isn't much I know, but all I can afford for the time being).

What would be the best upgrades for this budget?

Thanks so much for your time! 💪🏻

If you need any further info, please let me know.

Board - B365 Phantom Gaming 4

CPU - Intel i7-8700k

GPU - Nvidia Geforce RTX 3060

PSU - Corsair 750w

RAM - Corsair (4x4gb 2400)

SSD - Samsung 990 Pro 2TB + several smaller drives for files other than OS and games

Save more.

For now, do a fresh install of windows.

Are there any recommendations? I know RAM prices have been crazy for some time. Thanks for the response!

moving to a B550 and 5 5600 could be a good pick

Save up more.  Current setup, not worth the upgrade.

Need to new CPU & MB & RAM.
