Please help! in need of great gaming desktop.

[Benjamin Shaeffer]

Hi, I currently own a cheap-low budget gaming desktop, soon I do hope to get a job (since I am still young) and I would love to get a great gaming desktop so I can relax, and play with my friends. How ever, I currently can barely run games like, DayZ, Rust, and much more when I do, really want to play every game maxed settings (budget up to only $850)
my current specs are
-AMD (FX)-4200 Quad-Core Processor - 3.40 GHz, 8GB RAM, I also have a Radeon HD 6450.
I thought this build could run mostly anything. If I can play games (I wish to play GTA V) but I cant run GTA IV so I doubt it, please let me know! also if you could be kind enough to tell me a simple build with the budget and ect. to run any game, I don't care about 1080p graphics, I just play for the gaming experience. That would be lovely. I only have a $850 budget, I am willing to mix in or even just RENEW parts like my gcard and ect. Thanks for your time! have a grand day. All help is much appreciated.
Thanks

*SOLVED*

Much newer GPU, even if it's not the best of the best. It should however do a very good job.

Especially if you don't even care for 1080p. You could probably frankenstein your current RAM to save money if you want.

When Windows 10 is released, you can then upgrade to it for free, as you will have 7.
