I will be listing what you need and do not need to upgrade next to each of your components

--------------------------------
CPU: Intel - Core i5-7500 3.4GHz Quad-Core Processor = 219 ---> AMD RYZEN 7 1700 Proccessor (8 Cores | 3.7GHz | 16x Threads) = €273
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master - Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler = 35.99
Motherboard: Asus - ROG STRIX B250G GAMING Micro ATX LGA1151 Motherboard = 100 ---> MSI B350M Gaming Pro Motherboard = €84
Memory: Kingston - HyperX Fury Black 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR4-2133 Memory = 84.50
MSI GeForce GTX 1080 GAMING X 8G = 628
Case: Cooler Master - MasterBox Lite 5 ATX Mid Tower Case = 50
EVGA - Corsair VS650 650W ATX Zwart power supply unit = 62.99 ---> Antec VP700P 700W 80 + SILENT PSU = €67
SEAGATE BARRACUDA ST1000DM010 1 TB = 52.99
€1233,98 (WITH MY CHANGES WOULD BE €1270)
(i have a 250gb ssd already)
--------------------------------

The major change is the CPU at the moment you would want to make the changes I did as this will increase FPS in a lot of games, The change in CPU will also complement your graphics card as now your graphics card will not be bottlenecked by your CPU. 16 threads will help you out a lot in any game you play, Personally, I find AMD's newest CPU's to be more reliable and powerful than Intel's

First thanks for the reply. I dont want to buy from weird/unprofessional sites/stores. i only buy at big/known shops. so that means your prices will increase a bit but its not a big deal.
so the AMD RYZEN 7 1700 will be €333.99.
And the MSI B350M Gaming Pro Motherboard will be €94.99.
And the Antec VP700P 700W 80 + SILENT PSU will be €77 (why a higher watt psu?).
would be €1340.
Kingston - HyperX Fury Black 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR4-2133 Memory (maybe im changing this to a 1x8 so i can add 1x8 later instead of a 2x4>2x8)(No price difference). Il think about this changes:D. THX!

Sorry for the price changes, We have a very known and good pc store here in South Africa that gives a 3-year warranty on literally everything. The reason I am going for a PSU that is 50W higher is to leave room if in the future you would want to buy extra graphics cards than you should be set. Sure 600w should be fine for now, I am merely just thinking about upgrading in the future :)

Sorry for not checking that earlier. I would then recommend keeping the power supply as is. As adding another graphics card would still be fine for a 650w PSU but I would recommend to rather get the MSI B350 PC MATE AMD AM4 RYZEN Motherboard. It has 2 PCIe Slots and well spaced to support 2 full sized GPU's
