I'm looking to upgrade my PC while keeping the GPU (RTX 2070) intact. Here are my current specs: i7 6700, Z170 Pro Gaming motherboard, and 16GB of 1200MHz DDR4 RAM. I want to know the best upgrade path to enhance my system for solid 1440p gaming, ideally within a $1,000 budget. Any suggestions?

If you can stretch your budget a bit more, what specific components were you thinking about replacing? Knowing your priorities can help tailor the upgrade path.
The best advice I can give is to keep saving up a bit more for your upgrades. You might want to consider moving to an older AM4 platform for a decent bump in performance. Here’s a sample build you could take a look at: https://de.pcpartpicker.com/list/XbQhtn. Just a heads up—if your RAM is truly 1200MHz, you might want to check if it's actually 2400MHz, as that’s more commonly the base speed, which will work but isn't ideal.
