Well for starters it depends on what you're going to use it for. If it's for work and typing and doing documents ect...then you don't need that much of a upgrade. However if it's for gaming then you need a major upgrade. However if you want it for gaming, you should look for a new pc. Trying to put modern gaming hardware into that kind of a case will cause many issues such as major overheating and possibly not enough room for everything. If you want to upgrade to just a work pc the upgrades I'd reccomend are:
CPU: I'd reccomend at least a core i3 if not a i5. Make sure your mother board can support the specific gen and model of cpu you find.
GPU: You don't need a super high end one. GPU's cost a lot of money now days so try to find one with AT LEAST 2GB Vram. This will up your preformance.
RAM: At least 8GB of DDR4 Ram. Make sure your motherboard can support it.
Motherboard: you'll need to upgrade your motherboard to support newer hardware.
Finally make sure you have proper cooling and a decent Power supply to run it all.
