With the components you have it's tough. Maybe you can get a used 5600X? It would still feel like a massive upgrade (99% fps matters a lot more for smoothness than average fps).
For an actually decent longer lasting upgrade on the same motherboard you'd need a 5800X3D, new RAM (2x16 GB 3600 MHz preferred) and a new GPU.
So it might actually be best to save up now and build a new rig with RTX 5000 series and the next gen of CPUs.
