Welcome to Tom's!

IMHO, you need to start thinking about a new build.In my experience, upgrading a pre-built is almost never cost effective. A stronger graphics card will almost certainly require a better PSU. A better CPU would require a new MB as the FM2+ socket is already end-of-life. A new MB will require new Ram as nothing uses DDR# anymore. While you are at it, you really need a new case, as working in a mini tower can put severe restrictions on the size of GPUs that will fit. If you get all these new components, you are 75-90% to a complete new build, might as well build new. Do you have a specific budget in mind?
