As for the graphics card:

Your CPU is aging. I have the same one pretty much (i3-2100 so clocked a bit lower) and I'm significantly noticing it's age in games.

I'd suggest something like a 7770/7790 at most. (or waiting for the 8xxx series to release to the public and get the equivalent of the 7770/7790.)

If you don't do that, you might want to get a higher-end GPU and deal with a bottleneck until you can upgrade your CPU, though personally rather than doing this I'd just save and upgrade my CPU and GPU at the same time.

Also your RAM's fine for most things nowadays, so if you were considering upgrading that I personally would not.

Hope this helped!
