This is not a problem, but question.
If you had a bit of money from some unexpected source, but not enough to buy a whole new PC, what would you buy  to improve what you have?
I was reading this article from last year and saw some ideas  taht did not sound right to me. Why am I so sceptical?

He says:
Get a new i7 CPU from Intel. The Intel Core i7-6950X Processor Extreme Edition
Get a new motherboard. Like a Asus X99 Deluxe-II .
Then he really gets wild and suggest you get the best 12 GB RAM out there.
Finally he gets to graphics. This is what annoys me. Why did he not start with graphics? Graphics is something you can actually see, not just believe.
Then he does display. Boy does he have it backwards. Most of us would do more for our PC pleasure if we start wit ha better display and then spend money on the other stuff. Then he puts Power Supply near the bottom of his list HUH? How do you power all that tRAM with the old PSU?
Here's a link for a article with another LOOK at upgrades.

Do you agree? Am I wrong? Should you put more money in CPU and RAM  instead of the graphics and display?
What do you think? 
Well it DEPENDS.. If you already have a great power supply why would you start with that? The point of an upgrade is to take the weakest link and make it stronger so you should put more money in whatever your weakest link is.What should (or rather, could) be upgraded in a system is going to be dependent on current system's configuration.

if it has a weak graphics card or is using on-board graphics, and the intention is to run games, then that's an obvious starting place- unless the PSU isn't good enough for a reasonable budget graphics card, in which CASE that would be a starting place. and if a system has 4GB of RAM an upgrade to 8GB or 16GB can be helpful; but again, that goes back to the system configuration. If the PC has 4 slots of RAM, and you've got 8GB in 2 slots, then you can upgrade by buying two more 4GB sticks; but if your 8GB is in 4 2GB sticks, you have to buy four new 4GB sticks to get the same upgrade, which isn't going to be nearly as economical (not to mention now you've got RAM you aren't using as well, the old sticks)

Maybe the motherboard doesn't even have a PCI-E slot to use for a graphics card, in which case maybe a motherboard upgrade would be in order; but then you likely need new memory, and if the case you have is OEM, a new motherboard might not connect up properly with all the case connectors as well.

Sometimes an "upgrade" can be achieved by merely buying a good CPU cooler; if you've already got an unlocked processor and a motherboard capable of overclocking, you can overclock, which could improve performance. Or at least make numbers bigger, anyway. Cooler's tend to be fairly affordable. (Sometimes they are considered a necessary component of a build, though I usually start out with a stock cooler myself.)

And, if the system is old enough, "upgrades" are throwing money down a hole. It's ONE thing to do this knowingly (eg upgrading older systems just because you can) it's another to do so expecting to bring new life into the system. You aren't going to be playing The latest Doom game on your ZX Spectrum just because you bought the 16kB RAM Expansion, for example. Quote
