Upgrading my current PC.

I have built my PC like 5/6 months ago and it works fine for now but I wanted to ask what the best way is to upgrade it. (I think I'm going to upgrade after like 9/10 moths.) I don't want to sell any of my hardware. (Except for the CPU.) I'll give you my specs and I hope you can anwser my question ;)

Specs:

GPU: Sapphire RX480 4GB CPU: i5 6600(non k version) 3.3Ghz RAM: 8GB HyperX RAM 2 HDD's (around 1TB together) MOBO: MSI B150 Gaming M3

What are you trying to do in the future? What specs are you looking for? I'm thinking a good place to start would be to upgrade RAM to 16gb and add an SSD

If you're running 1080p for games, you don't really need anything. 16GB of memory wouldn't hurt, and an SSD if you don't have one (for Windows and Games).

I think the best way is to go with the future Z motherboard and get an unlocked i7 Coffeelake CPU, along with upgrading your RAM to 16 gigs.

Edit: This and going 580 8 Gig or Vega.
