You could build a much better system for $1000. My advice do your homework. I always heavily research parts, bench marks etc... when starting a build project. I could easily give you a system spec list, but ultimately you have to live with the system, so I would advise that you do as much of the work...

You could also buy the parts and let someone else for say 50$ or less assemble them for you, at a computer store, or someone you know.
I don't now how it is in the US but here in Holland you have enough computer stores who offer this service for €50.
Oh and what is your budget because that comp you have there is not very good at running the newest games on high quality.

This build is for mainstream gaming. This will run games like Minecraft, Dota 2, League of Legends, and Counter Strike: Global Offensive with very good FPS results. If you play demanding games like Battlefield 4, Crysis 3, Metro: Last Light, and Tomb Raider, you will have to sacrifice appearance for performance by running these games in very low to medium graphics settings and/or lowering the resolution.

Treat it as a voyage of discovery and you might even enjoy it like I do.
