So I've been playing with my friend for a long time now. We would usually play dota 2 and less graphic games. Well lately we been playing PUBG and his PC can barely handle that game. he gets like 15-20 fps if that. I just upgraded my PC and i told him i would give him my old one but i know my old one isnt even good enough to play PUBG (never actually tried but im pretty sure. So my question after all this is would it be better to upgrade my old PC and send it to him or just buy him a decent new PC and not tell him.

This is my old build

Antec VP-450

Buy a new GPU for that build and it is perfectly capable of running nearly any contemporary game.
