Budget Range: ~$1000 only if I don't recycle any of my parts
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming > YouTube > Music > Web Surfing
Are you buying a monitor: No
Parts to Upgrade: CPU, MOBO, SSD (don't use one right now) - Below is a list of parts I already have, so please let me know if any of them are incompatible or not recommended based on my comments regarding what games I play at the bottom of this post:
-2x G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL

-EVGA GeForce GTX 750 Ti
-Samsung Desktop Class Spinpoint F3 1 TB SATA 3.0 Gb-s 32 MB Cache 3.5-Inch Internal Bare-OEM Drives, HD103SJ
Do you need to buy OS: Yes / No
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Newegg
Location: Richmond, VA, USA
Parts Preferences: by brand or type: Intel/ASUS
Overclocking: Maybe
SLI or Crossfire: Yes, SLI
Your Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080
Additional Comments: My current build is 4 1/2 years old, except for the GPU which I got a little over a year ago. That's why I feel it's time to start making some upgrades. Right now I generally play Diablo 3, and have had some issues with my computer freezing for about 4-5 seconds at a time when things get very 'crowded' in the game. I plan to purchase Blizzard's new Overwatch when it comes out. I'm not currently planning on playing any other games, unless there's a very popular MMO that comes out in the near future.
The reason I only listed CPU and MOBO is because I'm in the process of troubleshooting a no display issue, but it's getting so frustrating that I'd rather just upgrade since I feel it's about that time anyway. Thanks in advance for the help.
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: Answered above
