The Left Side is my current Rig the right side is my planned upgrades. This will not all happen at once it will be over the span of a few months possibly more so im open to suggestions. Price WAS factored into these as im not rich
 
Solution
Go with the FX6300 will work fine in your current board if you do not Overclock much. Get the HD6870 from the friend (cant beat that price). Stick with your current 8GB kit and PSU. That would be a massive upgrade for around $150.
