This is my old computer I am building new one but I feel like I still can upgrade this desktop to the maximum potential. Right now it has i5 3470 GPU GTX 660 Ti
Power 700 W

So I am looking to buy new mainboard Ram SSD (if still capable) if not then HDD And new CPU

So what do you guys think which highest intel that I can go up to?

Rather than upgrading cpu, upgrade the gpu to something like as cheap as gtx1650 will give your pc a breathe of New life once again

yup his GPU is actually holding back the i5 3470 lol

Something like 1650 will fix this problem or a Radeon RX560/RX460.
