I have had my Vortex T900 Pro for a while, it's not the greatest PC I'll admit but I think it's time for a little upgrade.. The problem is, I'm unsure what to prioritise.

Specs are as follows:
Intel® Core™i5 Quad Core Processor i5-4570 (3.2GHz) 6MB Cache
8GB KINGSTON HYPER-X GENESIS DUAL-DDR3 1600MHz, X.M.P (2 x 4GB KIT)
2GB NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 650Ti BOOST- 2 x DVI, HDMI, - 3D Vision Ready
650W FSP RAIDER SERIES RA-650 80 PLUS® BRONZE
Super Quiet 22dBA Triple Copper Heatpipe Intel CPU Cooler


What should I upgrade, I mostly use my PC for playing games like Reign of Kings, Day Z, Minecraft etc.

I'd agree with Keynes, you've actually got pretty solid basics in your rig, the thing that would benefit the most from an upgrade is the GPU and for £250, perhaps the GTX970?

Your current setup wouldn't bottleneck it at all, even the PSU has plenty of room for the upgrade.

You're looking at a GTX 960 or an R9 280X. If you could stretch your budget a bit more then you'd see quite a big difference if you got a GTX 970 or R9 290.

EDIT: there are Zotac GTX 970s for just a little over your budget.
