No, you cannot upgrade to that processor. They use different sockets. You could probably fit a GTX 750 in your computer, but you would definitely need more processor to take advantage of it. This is one of those "you can't get there from here" situations. Your best bet would be to buy a pre-built computer. You can find something with comparable specs for about what you can build one for. If you are set on building a computer, that would be a good processor to build around for a low-end gaming system, but you are going to need a new motherboard, and likely some other parts.
 


No you cannot. The j1800 is soldered on the board. A j1800 is just enough to browse the web not even close to enough for any semi modern games. It's worse than a mid range athlon 64x2.

Here is an option for you:

It's about $500, built around a G4560, 8GB memory (that's all you will likely need), with a few extras like a 240GB SSD primary drive and 500GB HDD secondary, and a Hyper EVO 212 to keep the processor nice and cool. And the 1050 Ti is current technology, lower power, and 50% faster than the GTX 750 Ti.
