Will getting a Fast prime get 'Lost' on my 350D ?

Exploring all my options as you will see from my previous posts. Im considering the possibility of purchasing a fast prime eg. 35 F1.4. Have been thinking whether to upgrade to a 5D II / upgrade a fast prime. Its the classic battle. Im wondering if the 350D is worth sticking with or keep it and continue building my lens collection.
Lenses owned so far are : 17-40 f 4L, 50 f 1.8, 100 f 2.8 macro (my favourite).
My photography i feel sometimes is limited by the 350D.

I love low light photography this is my passion. Will getting a faster prime allow me to avoid iso 1600? Cause as you probably know at 1600 even iso 800 the 350d struggles.

Any pointers pleaseeee ?
