I'm looking to upgrade my current PC setup and could use some guidance on choosing a new CPU and GPU. My current CPU is an Intel Core i5-11500, and I have an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER for my graphics. I'd love to know your thoughts on what components might be the best step up for me.

Focusing on a GPU upgrade first is a solid choice for improving performance. Choose one that fits within your budget, and it might make sense to delay the CPU upgrade for now if you're looking to maximize your budget. Just keep in mind, prices can vary, but aiming for something in the $300-400 range should get you a decent upgrade.
Before diving into specific parts, what's your budget? I can recommend some high-end options like the AMD 9800X3D and NVIDIA GeForce 5090, but those may not suit everyone's budget.
Good point! I’m primarily looking to upgrade my GPU and aiming to keep it under $400.

Thanks for the advice! I'll prioritize the GPU and see what I can find in that price range.
