You'll need a new config IMO. You might be able to retain your cabinet if it has proper air flow and front USB 3.0 ports (for new motherboards)

Your product is more than end of life. Even ddr4 has reached end of life. You can opt for a 2nd hand pc ryzen setup than buying a new one.

At best, maybe you can get a GTX 750Ti/760 and replace HDD with SSD.

Get a 500gb or 1tb ssd, it will apeed up the pc. I am using m4a88t-m with 960t _ 6 cores unlocked and 6gb ddr3. It is fine for browsing and office work.

Didn't see the PSU. Stick with 750Ti. You might be able to get a used one around 1-2k.
can you provide a link or contact for a used one around 1-2k?

used so far for DTP, Promo video creation, Ad & Event Video creation (Photoshop, CorelDraw, premiere, after effects, Blender) now I want to go for a new Config for my work & use this one for Dtp & multimedia training. I've to return gt610 as I borrowed it from my friend. that's why I'm asking for the maximum upgradation of GPU,PSU,CPU for my mobo
