Help me upgrade my CPU

This build was completed back in 2019 and since then I've only changed out the power supply and ram for more capacity. Now I'm looking to upgrade my CPU (and probably motherboard too). I've not stayed informed about parts and such since completing my build, and it's pretty daunting now trying to upgrade. I figured I should ask people who know far more than I do about the current market.

I use this PC for gaming, and my budget is max $800, but I'd like to spend less, of course.

Current Specs

CPU: Ryzen 5 3600
Motherboard: Asrock X570 Phantom Gaming 4
RAM: Ripjaws V 32G (16x2) DD4 3200
GPU: GTX 1660 Ti
Powersuppy: Corsair RM850e (850 watt Gold)

Storage: 500GB NVMe SSD (boot); WD 2TB HDD; 2TB NVMe SSD (can't remember brand)
