Firstly you need more RAM. 1GB is far too little for gaming nowadays. You really need 4GB at the min. Also, so play any games you need to buy a dedicated graphics card. At the minute you are using the integrated GPU which is built into your motherboard.

Also, your processor is very weak.

I honestly think you should just buy a budget gaming rig and re use your Windows 7 license on the new PC. Are you okay building PCs? If so, this would be a nice cheap system that would easily play Fifa.

Check this benchmark for the A10 fps in the charts below. It would easily play fifa on medium/high at 50fps at least. :) Cheap too!


Radeon R7 in A10-7850K, A10-7850K, Samsung SSD 470 Series MZ-5PA256/EU
Kaveri Asus A88-XM-PLUS
81 (min: 73) fps ∼18%
61 (min: 58) fps ∼18%
29 (min: 23) fps ∼11%

The A10 I put in the build above would perform similar so you can expect 40 -60 fps at medium settings on FIFA 15.

It would be a waste to try upgrade your current PC as everything is so outdated.
