You are best off building a new rig and saving a couple parts. You could save CPU, Ram And HDD. You should upgrade MB, GPU, Case and PSU. I could put together some parts for you if you want if you give me a budget!

Reuse your CPU, HDD, optical drive and ram! Its $10 over budget because of windows. If you don't need windows then I could change it again. The first thing I would do when you get more money is to upgrade the CPU to probably a FX-6300($120) but its not urgent. You should be able to play on high settings at 1080p. Hope you like it!
Edit: the MB does not have CF support, that's simply not doable at this budget. Sorry!
