An SSD would do wonders for you. Apart from that there isnt really any upgrades unless you want to say overclock with with some water cooling

Yeah, forgot that.

Got a 120 gb sandisk SSD (don't remember if ultra or extreme).

it's just that I'mm gaming on a 144hz 1080p display, and I want to push out more fps from my games... how much can water cooling up my performance, cost/benefit?

 

imo you dont need upgrade, i would wait for the new intel CPUs and GPUs.

 

GTX 980 is top notch... how much does a CPU really affect?

Well all water cooling gona do is allow you to get higher overclocks, is it currently overclocked?
