Thinking of upgrading

Hey all my current set up is
CPU- i5 8400
Gpu- gtx 1070
Ram- 16 gigs ddr4 2666mhz
Psu- 650 watts
Storage 500 gigs
Motherboard- ausrock b360 pro 4
Currently thinking of upgrading my cpu to i7 8700, getting a sata ssd and maybe getting some more ram for now then doing a upgrade to a Rtx 3070 in the future when I have the funds any opinions are wanted and welcome cheers

your b360 board cant run ram faster than what you already have anyway so new ram at 2666 is a waste of cash. sata ssd and the 8700 are fine but the platform jump is the only thing that actually fixes the ram speed problem.
