Nice config. Looks like you have it maxed-out.
I suggest you use it as is, and start saving-up for a new one.
That model is older than 3 years ago. It has a small power-supply and limited cooling capabilities.

Newer pascal based units are better than the previous GTX 9xx series.
If you already have 330w power brick then the only other recommendation is the GPU.
Thats why GTX 1050TI is as good as GTX 680.

So the only thing I would add is GTX 1060
