Okay, well then increase your RAM to 8GB (2x4GB) of either HyperX Beast, Ripjaws X, or Vengeance/Vengeance Pro. Then, get a decent cooler for your CPU, a Hyper 212 EVO cools great and is not all that expensive. Then do some light overclocking. You will see great performance gains, another thing you might want to do later on or right now if you have the money is add an SSD. A 120GB should be enough for your favorite games, OCZ Vertex 4 and Corsair Force GS 120GB versions are some of the fastest SSDs in the market. Your GPU is not really high end, more like mid end. So, when you have the money, look into something like a GTX 770 (400$) or GTX 760 (250$).

2GB won't be enough for big, demanding games, get 8gb, so add 6gb to your current 2gb, or completely replace your 2gb with a better HyperX Beast 8Gb. The FX 6300 is not bad, you might want to buy a cooler and overclock it a bit. Another thing you could do is get an SSD which will really make a huge difference. However, SSDs are pretty expensive, for now, 8gb and a better CPU that's slightly overclocked should do. Can I have your system's full specs?

Well, I just wanted to give a simple comparaison, but if you'll go that in depth, that's fine with me. :D I'd love to give the 8350 a classification on the level of the Viper, but AMD needs to fix their per core performance, because that 8 core powerhouse can't outperform an i5 3570K, but again, for the price, it's a great deal.
