Good starter PC and you will be able to get a Haswell i5 or i7 new or from eBay (if it's a few years in the future) and drop it straight into the motherboard. Just be aware that once you've got a few games installed on there that little 120Gb SSD will fill up fast.

Consider getting a larger 240-250Gb one or buying a cheap mechanical drive of 750Gb+ to use as an auxiliary drive.
This computer will be good especially for MOBA games.For more demanding games i think you would be able to play them on medium settings on 1080p.
If you are into overclocking you can get that CPU up to 4.5 GHz with the CM 212 EVO cooler which is pretty cheap.
