get a CPU than Upgrade GPU by the end of this year new 20nm cards should be out by then and the intel CPU will last 4years at least or 5

look at the 2500K from 2011 still kicking and when overclocked it does wonders

Go for the i5 4460, it's just 5 dollars more expensive than the 4440 and it's slightly better. Also, you have an error on the description - the GTX 970 Ti doesn't exist yet.

EDIT: The 560 Ti is pretty old, but if you only play Dota2 it won't really matter all that much. In the future look for a R9 280X if you want to upgrade. I would start with upgrading the CPU though.
