Reasonable only an 8350 would be an upgrade to consider, it only offers a marginal increase in performance, you might see an average of 5FPS if gaming is your main concern. Your motherboard is going to be the limiting factor, early boards had weak VRM's and could only handle up to a 6300. With a good motherboard and sufficient cooling, you can always overclock and push a little more out of those CPU's.
