the mouse wont make u play any better.

I would look for a used i5 6500 or buy a new i7 6700.

If you are seeing performance issues in the programs you are running, check your CPU usage. If the CPU is topping out and causing issues, it's time for an upgrade. I'd recommend checking your RAM usage as well, 16gb has quickly become standard these days. If all is well and things running great....enjoy your new monitor, keyboard and mouse

Your GPU should be good for medium to high settings in most games at 1080p, so I'd be surprised if there is a bottleneck there.

If you are going for the CPU upgrade, go to Gigabytes website and look up your motherboard, make sure it's the same model and revision, then look up the CPU compatibility list. If you see the CPU you want for the upgrade, find the BIOS version required and you can use CPUz to make sure you have that version or newer. If running an older BIOS, you will need to upgrade that before getting the new CPU installed.
