I'm currently using an ASUS z270 pro4 motherboard with 64GB of DDR4 RAM, a Gigabyte RTX 4060 Ti GPU, an i7-6700 CPU, and a 4TB NVMe drive. I'm considering an upgrade but need advice on which components to focus on. My setup isn't ready for Windows 11, and I can't seem to get above 120fps in most FPS games. I have a budget of $700. What should I prioritize for the upgrade?

To really boost your gaming experience, I'd recommend upgrading your CPU, motherboard, and RAM all at once. Your current CPU is holding back that RTX 4060 Ti, so a newer CPU will help you hit higher FPS in games. Make sure to pair the CPU with a compatible motherboard that supports DDR4 or even DDR5 if your budget allows. This trio will give your performance the biggest boost!
With a budget of $700, which one of those components should I focus on first?
