Suggested Gaming Computer Upgrade

[SaxonJackson]

About a year ago, I purchased the following gaming computer off Amazon:

MSI Codex R2 Gaming Desktop: Intel Core i5-14400F, Geforce RTX 4060, 16GB DDR5, 1TB m.2 NVMe SSD, 80+ Gold PSU, WiFi, Keyboard & Mouse, DIY Friendly, Windows 11 Home: A14NUC5-232US​

For the computer gurus out there, what component(s) would you upgrade first to improve overall function and capability? It's currently working fine but I'm always looking to improve my gaming experience. My "monitor" is a 65" Smart TV.

Let me review your list above, I build PCs every few years for my own use.

Can you say what the motherboard is, brand/model etc

I can see the CPU socket type is: FCLGA1700 so that lets us see what CPU upgrade options might be viable.

PassMark Software - CPU Benchmarks - CPU Performance by Socket Type - Socket LGA 1700

PassMark Software - CPU Benchmarks - Over 1 million CPUs and 5,000 models benchmarked and compared in graph form, updated daily!

Upgrading the processor to a: Intel Core i7-14700K would hike up the CPU speed, but a lot depends on the MOBO.

Here's the link to Amazon. I'm not expert so maybe you can glean some information from their site:
