but do i even need a upgrade?

I can't see your sig so I'm going to assume a haswell i5. No it wouldn't be worth it. If you have any haswell i5, you'll be good for years. Unless you do more than gaming, then you could do things quicker with an i7, but I wouldn't recommend it

My rig:
CPU: i5 4690k 24/7 @4.4ghz (1.165v) Max 4.7ghz (1.325v) COOLER: NZXT Kraken X61 MOBO: Asus Z97-A   RAM: 16GB Crucial Ballistix Tactical   GPU: EVGA GTX 970 SSC   PSU: EVGA GS 650W   CASE: NZXT Phantom 530 HDD: WD Caviar Blue 1TB + WD Black 2TB

You're good for at least 4-5 years before an upgrade will be worth the cost
