I'm looking at something like autodesk 360.also i'm using two monitors, one regular and one hdmi.

Lenovo H520 is small form factor. I will suggest to upgrade your Case first to something mid tower cases. And your system has micto ATX MOBO which will fot most of current Cases now. Then to upgrade the processor, Graphics card, SSD, PSU. ANd not sure if you have done any system dismantlement and configure a new one. If yes, then you can do the above steps, if not then buying another system will be good option too.
