Well I just looked up your cpu and I would say just get a new gpu. Well was about to recommend a 6870, but looks like they are all gone and makes me sad guess I'm not doing crossfire. lol. Can you go a little higher in price? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150656 is pretty good or 650 ti if you need a little cheaper.

Upgrade the graphics card, your CPU can handle most games.

as the others said a new cpu really dude as your current cpu will most likely handle the majority of the games out now save up for a 7770 or something as their price/performance is brilliant i own one and am not dissapointed with it handles every game i throw at it 1920x1080 highest setting and still about 50fps on most games

Usually I would say get a new GPU (the CPU is still fine for games) but if your only playing DOTA then your machine is just fine !

You playing something else?

the resolution is not how big the monitor is. It is how many vertical pixels vs horizontal pixels it can display. Something like 1920x1080. you can check it with a right click on desktop and Appearance/Display.

games like crysis need a lot of GPU power so there is your answer. You need to upgrade the GPU.

Now we need to know your budget and how powerful your power supply is.
