No, the gpu is definetly what's "killing it". 4gbs of ram is too little nowadays but it's not your problem right now for sure (though a $30 stick of ram will help you with the other stuff you do like multitasking, hd video reproduction with multiple windows open on chrome, etc.).
Just to give you some sort of comparison between your gpu and more modern ones: (650ti vs:)
What i'm saying is that you can spend $30 on a 4gb stick of ram, get 1-5 fps boost and a significant boost in your overall windows/macos/linux experience, or get a rx 480/gtx 950 for 200(my recomendation) or 150 dollars and get a significant boost, probably getting to playable levels at medium in 1080p with the 950 and most definetly full 60fps at max settings on 1080p with the new rx 480. You can also do both and probably be done with upgrading your pc for a long while, maybe 3 years or more even.
Also, the 750ti, 950, 960 and 480 all need very little power compared to other cards, so you can probably just swap them with your current 650 without much hassle. I would ask /r/buildapc for more info on compatibility.
how much better is the R9 380x than the 380? If i have an i3 6100 will it work well with either?
Edit: I want the R9 380x used for $212, OR the R9 380 new for $190
