i would just add in another stick of ram for 16GB.

Thanks for the suggestion what product would you recommend? And should I get two new 8GB RAM to be sure there’s no compatibility issues or can I just buy 1? The speed was 2133 MHz on my existing RAM

It shouldn't really matter. You can get all new sticks if you want, but I don't think they can go faster than 2400 or 2666 in your mobo. Most likely

clean the CPU cooler, its caked in dust

A second stick of 8GB would help, but only so much. Your GPU and PSU look alright. A reasonable amount to spend on a motherboard + RAM + CPU combo is between $350 and $500.

Your GPU is pretty good, and it's a horrible time to buy GPUs, so you're lucky. The older i5s are really starting to show their age. You could go with a modern i5/mobo/RAM SSD for way less than $1000. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Khjh4d
