well, frankly - if you really need to upgrade you'd need to aim for i7(which will need a new mobo) or a GTX780ti and above - each of which is currently above your budget.
or, you could invest in some good cooling (NH-D14 for air, Corsair H100i for water, or any equivalent + some paste like Arctic Silver 5) and overclock like crazy :D
