FYI, i'm running an i5 4690 with Ubuntu/Windows without problem, 'intel does not always agree with' doesn't make any sense.

Do you want to stay with that system? That's ok. 750Ti is the higher you can go, now, you will notice any improvement? A little.

If you want to go for CPU, that implies directly in a new mobo, this is a yes or yes. Ram, well, depends WHICH CPU you choose you can re-use it.

And well, PSU, i would change it to a XFX or EVGA.

Witch processor schould i pick then?
 
At today, for gaming intel CPU are the best. Looking at you dont have problem with money then, new CPU skylake (search 6th generation), motherboard which supports LGA1151 (new skylake), 8gb DDR4 ram, a good PSU with 650w or 750w for future you will be fine. Also, what resolution you play?

Yeah but that would be a new build witch i'm not going to do for the reason that i have a buttload of parts already. i'm trying to avoid making the pile bigger. + i run amd specifically because i have linux and windows both in one pc witch intel does not always agree with. so what i am asking is basically maybe a change in graphics card and or cpu.
