To be honest your looking at nearly at pretty much a entirely new system. You might be able to reuse the Case & Storage.

Budget?

Unfortunately, it's not as easy as adding a new graphics card because the CPU is very old meaning you need a graphics card, a new CPU, a new motherboard for the newer CPU, and ddr4 for the newer mobo and CPU. This is more expensive than just buying a graphics card but possibly worth it. I put together a couple of different list of parts I would recommend but be sure they with all fit in your pc. You may also consider a better power supply;https://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod...a 500w&cm_re=evga_500w-_-17-438-145-_-Product

Cheaper but using integrated Graphics so it doesn't perform as well: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/b2cLfH (Look up 2400g benchmarks on youtube)
More expensive but much faster: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Q2LGZR (Look up Rx 570 4gb benchmarks on youtube)

This is the issue Ive been having, I cannot get anything to run right. No game will run well and Ive upgrade the ram to the highest amount. I can defiantly add a better power supply and Processor.
Radeon RX570 4g Graphics Card I just installed.

I spend 450 on this Pc and thought it would get me buy but I can barley do anything. Its been 10 years since Ive jumped back into the Pc world and I sure did make a mistake.

Just added 100 for the Radeon RX570 4g card and figured Id get some performance but still crap.

Dang you really think I need a new Motherboard right off the get?
here my case and I think I can just about fit anything in there. Do you think I could sell any of this crap and make something back? Do you think anyone will even think about buying it?

It's your CPU causing poor performance, if you can reuse the Case, PSU (if good quality 550W unit), Storage & GPU then I would get this as it would be a massive improvement over your current system. You'll want to do a clean install of Windows then download the newest drivers for the motherboard & GPU.
