Depending on the projects you typically do (Animation vs Rendering), another RAM kit may be more beneficial than a CPU upgrade. However, Maya has a variety of uses and each of them tax different components of the PC. No one likes when a program closes unexpectedly or takes half a day to render.

The only recommendation they give is 16GB or higher of RAM, which is a bit of an understatement if you plan on rendering a lot.
