It's a fairly middle-of-the road system. Although that CPU is horrible and should be changed if you can afford it. Try get an i3.

I's always a challenge with a budget system, knowing where to put the money. rorm the configuration above it seems that you just don't have enough, although if you link to a local site I may be able to help you do better.

Modern gaming begins to need more than two threads, so an i3 is the minimum Intel CPU for future gaming.
If you need to save money, a well featured, solid and cheap motherboard will do. I'd look at a cheaper H110.
Memory is fine.
Very old GPU. OK performance, but at what cost (PSU need)?
Too small SSD. Small SSDs are slower and are limited to about 80% capacity for efficient garbage collection. I'd consider ditching the HDD and getting only a big SDD to start with (240Gb or more) then save up for a HDD later. It will be practically plug and play.
That's an OK PSU (PCARN1? Elite V2) but delivers closer to 500W of usable power.
Cases are personal choice. In this system you have to buy the cheapest case you can stand to afford other more important things.
