Help me with this upgrade decision!

Instead of making incremental upgrades to a very, very old system, I would save each and every cent towards getting a new motherboard, cpu and ram. Why put money into a system that is not going to be in use after 6-12 months? Instead of stuffing perfomance holes in a system that is nearing its limit and bottlenecking your experience, save every penny towards an upgrade that can easily handle present day gaming loads. Even those 40$ that you want to spend for "new" old ram is money that could, at the time of your upgrade in a few months make the difference between 8 and 16 gigs of ram. Just my opinion though, I don't easily spend money that I worked hard to save up, if it only gives me a short term improvement. Patience.
That was more than enough for me to take my decision, thanks dude, i'll definitely keep this system until i build a DDR4 system. C:
