To be honest, it would be a shame to spend that kind of money on that system. Yes, a faster card and (if you can find one) a faster CPU would make a big difference. But if you like everything else about the rig, go for a new board, processor, memory, and gfx card.
There's many combinations of components out there, so this is only one of them:

I meant staying in that platform and upgrading it would not be worth it. You need a new platform. Intel LGA 1150 or AMD AM3+. That's why I listed one such combo. Of course, you would need to do a clean install of the OS and all your apps when you do that.
