You can do it yourself tbh.
You'll want an i5 4770k.

Then 16gb of ram.

The board you have is a haswell and that cpu is compatible.
You may need to update the bios but this doesn't concern you as the tech will be able to do it.

As for the memory, I'm not sure what you have now tbh.
Though upgrading it is as simple as sliding more or higher capacity sticks into a slot.

its a software thing for the mobo,
but once again you need not concern yourself with this.
Whom ever is installing said cpu will know about it and will address it if need be.
