Are you an avid gamer? Upgrade the GPU.
PS You are getting 280x so the i5 won't bottleneck it, since it's not an extremely high-end card.
So Ive had my PC for a while but its time for an upgrade. SO my specs are:
i5-4430
GTX960
1TB WD blue
16Gb DDR-3 1886Mhz
And a Corsair CX500M
And I p much want to upgrade everything siince its p medium grade-ish or whatever. But since I have not enough money for everything I can only upgrade on thing.
An SSD
R9 280X
an i7 CPU
Or upgrade my mobo for an LGA1151 socket so I can skylake.
So yeah, what do?

My GPU does for now. I mean I can play the latest game like the division on high at arround 50FPS so im happy.
Anyway I do allot of digital work so a CPU would be usefull.
But loading times are slow af ingame hence I also want an SSD
Buy SSD! It's some of the most important hardware to have in a computer if you want it to run blaaaaaaaazing fast
You should get a GTX 1070
Well if you can only upgrade 1 thing you can't do the motherboard, your old CPU wouldn't work with it.
GPU is the best upgrade if you are a gamer and want more power.
