If you wanted a gaming rig, you would definitely have to buy a new PC. Nothing about this PC is good for gaming.

8 Gb Ram is really not enough. 3 Gb Vram is too little for gaming these days. 400W is very very low to play games with. MB is entry level and not really any great things there. Almost a must to have 2 storage drives, one for games and backup. Good for surfing the net only or playing Candy Crush

And too your MB now and increasing your RAM. Buy 2 x 8 (2 x 16?) DDR4 3200. You have slow RAM but OK for the rest of the setup. I would not do as everything else is slow also or inadequate for gaming.
