You've got two options...

 

1) Keep your current motherboard and just upgrade the CPU to a used i7 3770K

or

2) Move to a totally new platform (Intel or AMD)

I think that you could go for a powerful GPU now, something like a second hand GTX 980 Ti, the CPU will bottleneck it... do overclock the most out of it but should still play fine enough and it will feel quite the upgrade from your current GPU.

Yeah I think the GPU is more worth than a CPU for now.
