Why do you want to to upgrade?

If you are upgrading just becouse you can i would recommend waiting a while and
build a new rig and sell the one you are using but thats only what i think you should do.

A gtx 760 or 770 would be a pretty solid upgrade too.

Don't get a soundcard. Its useless unless you have hard-to-drive headphones. And plus, an amp+dac is better anyways
