You'll be able to run old games and emulators. Emulating is very fun and with your build I would suggest getting into emulation and start emulating those gamecube, NES, PS2 and gameboy games. You may be able to run some old PC games such as Call of Duty 4 on low settings but modern titles won't run great.

I had already emulated games too. But with and Intel® celeron 1.8 GHz single-core over clocked to 2ghz+.
I want to upgrade my PC.
what processor might be good?
my motherboard socket is LGA 1155. I will buy 8gb ram stick at 1600MHz compatible with my motherboard and CPU.
And what GPU might be good? (Don't say an Nvidia geforce titan...that's expensive nor an nvidia geforce gtx 980 ti I want a GPU not that expensive)
thanks!

I wouldn't suggest a titan anyway because your CPU would bottleneck it anyway. Get an RX480 or a GTZ1060 both good budget cards but your CPU will still cause a bottleneck. For the 1155 chipset I'd get the i5-2500 but there still quite expensive so I'd just save your money and buy a whole new skylake or kabylake system (when kabylake is released) with an RX480 or a GTX1060.

I will start upgrading my PC starting with its processor then the graphics card.
