How do you get Civ 6 to not take 10,000 years per turn late game?

Why would I need a new motherboard and new ram? Is a motherboard from 2012/13 not going to be compatible with a new processor and GPU? At this rate, I might as well build a whole new PC.

AMD's Ryzen CPU's tend to require a new socket (AM4) and DDR4 Ram and isn't backwards compatible with the AM3+ socket and DDR3 Ram your system would be using.
And if you go Intel, you will also need a new socket (1151) and Ram (DDR4) as well.

Or would it be ok to keep the HDD, case, and PSU? The case is big enough to hold whatever you put in it, and has plenty of fans. The PSU is gold standard. An Harddrive is a harddrive right?

I would just replace the Motherboard, CPU and Ram at this stage, unless you find value in replacing the other hardware.

Edit: Upgrading the GPU at this time is outside of my price range. Would I run into any compatibility issues if I just go out and get a new motherboard, ram, and CPU? 

It should all work fine.
The Radeon 7770 is roughly equivalent to AMD's high-end Integrated Graphics these days anyway, if you are fine with keeping resolution and visuals limited, she will be fine.

Awesome, thanks! Definitely going to replace the Motherboard, Ram, and get a 2600X. I'll probably wait until some holiday sales happen first though.
