To base a ground on what you need/want to improve, is there anything you feel you are lacking in your computer? maybe it be load times/slow performance in games/unstable pc. Give us an idea of what is bothering you, or is it just an upgrade itch.

Maybe an SLi setup, or watercooling?

570/580 and an SSD is what I would do.
