Sorry but I don't think it makes sense to upgrade. Or at least only buy some ddr3 1600 ram, 8gb or something, and eventually a new graphics card so you can use these components for a new system.
The GPU is at it's limit, the CPU as well. The mainboard and socket doesn't offer any great upgrade options anymore... so I guess it's best to not patch it and get a new system.
I must say that 6 months is only correct if you buy budget video cards. With higher end models you can play for 1-2 years without problems. Both approaches work fine - it really depends on personal preference when it comes to game settings. If you want them maxed out then only the top tier cards will allow you to do so. If you're okay with lowered settings then most cards with great price points will do.
