Buying a new GPU won't help much as source games -CSGO is included- are CPU bound, so I would suggest saving more until you can build a new PC.

You'd have to be sure that whatever graphics card you purchase won't exceed your 400w power supply capabilities, but it won't take a monster GPU to run CSGO on medium at 60 fps.

 

Here are some wattage calculators: http://coolermaster.outervision.com/poc.jsp and  http://extreme.outervision.com/psucalculatorlite.jsp

 

Also keep in mind that if you purchase a crappy GPU now, you probably won't want to use it in your new system.
