That's a pre-built Lenovo machine, I'd assume. Unfortunately, those kinds of pre-built tend to be limited in many way (either case size, PSU, BIOS lock-in) that make manual self-upgrading difficult task. So the best route is to just get a new build:

PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant

CPU: Intel Pentium G4400 3.3GHz Dual-Core Processor ($56.99 @ SuperBiiz)
Motherboard: Asus H110M-A/M.2 Micro ATX LGA1151 Motherboard ($49.99 @ Newegg)
Memory: G.Skill NT Series 8GB (1 x 8GB) DDR4-2133 Memory ($32.98 @ Newegg)
Storage: Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ($46.49 @ NCIX US)

If you still want to try your hand at upgrading the old machine:
MSI N730K-1GD5LP/OC ($50.99 @ Amazon)
AMD Athlon II X2 270 (used starting at $34.75)
Mushkin Enhanced 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR3-1066 ($22.98 @ Newegg)

If your specific Lenovo accept these cheap upgrades ($108.72, and I wouldn't advise spending any more on such an old machine), it should do those games at of medium+ settings.
