definitly go for a new gpu! Your cpu should not have a problem with most games. i recommend a 670 760 770 2gb a 2gb 660 isnt going to do you much good. remember you can always overclock your cpu if the bios allows :p keep us posted

 
Changing to 2GB 660 will not change performance. You need 760, 770 for better FPS. You can probably run 760 with the current Antec. The CPU is ... decent.
For 770 - probably new PSU.
But this is office machine, If you plan serious gaming better design a gaming machine from scratch. Case, MB, GPU, CPU, RAM, PSU etc. All components must be planned for gaming in advance.
