What resolution will you be rendering at, playing games at etc. My computer now runs all the games at 60 Fps or higher. Some games lag and when I do some designs they lag a little bit.
What is your preferred amount of storage? I already have this. I have 2 3TB HDDs and a 500GB SSD
What games do you intend on playing? I play Ark, GTA, Cod, Rust, CSGO, ETC.
Preferred retailer? Don't really care or prefer one.

My current build is this:

CPU: Intel Core i5-4440 3.1GHz Quad-Core Processor ($173.95 @ SuperBiiz)
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper TX3 54.8 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler ($17.99 @ SuperBiiz)
Motherboard: Asus GRYPHON Z87 Micro ATX LGA1150 Motherboard ($96.89 @ OutletPC)
Memory: Corsair Vengeance Pro 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3-1600 Memory ($109.99 @ Newegg)
Storage: Seagate Barracuda 3TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ($85.83 @ Amazon)
Storage: Seagate Barracuda 3TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ($85.83 @ Amazon)
Video Card: Asus GeForce GTX 970 4GB STRIX Video Card ($329.99 @ Amazon)
Case: Corsair 200R ATX Mid Tower Case ($57.99 @ Micro Center)
Power Supply: EVGA SuperNOVA NEX 650W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply ($64.99 @ NCIX US)
Optical Drive: Asus DRW-24B1ST/BLK/B/AS DVD/CD Writer ($18.98 @ Newegg)
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 (OEM) (64-bit) ($86.89 @ OutletPC)
Keyboard: Cooler Master CM Storm Devastator Gaming Bundle Wired Gaming Keyboard w/Optical Mouse ($27.87 @ Amazon)
Total: $1157.19 Ended up being a little over $1200 though.



I just bought these:
SSD
Monitors x3

Nothing needs upgrading here. Your CPU is more than sufficient for the tasks you listed, the lag you experience is likely due to poor optimizations or just one of those things- nothing is perfect.
If you want to upgrade anyway, grab yourself an i7 4790K and a CM 212 EVO to replace that cooler.

If you want an up to date build, it would mean buying a Skylake (Or Haswell E) CPU, a new motherboard and DDR4 RAM.
