Your single biggest splurges are win10 and mobo, so no.

You can get win10 through totally (IL) legitimate methods for free and get a cheaper mobo off ebay. Then upgrade your ram and CPU to a used 2500k and 4 GB. But if you want new parts only, then yeah.

Cant be serious, single core cpu, 5400rpm hdd. Better of getting second hand hp/dell prebuilds of ebay

Your best bet is to look at the used market for PCs that are wayyy better than a single core processor in 2021. It will be a $483.86 brick at the end of the day with modern tasks and it be incredibly slow if you start to do multi-tasking with multiple windows/applications open. Those specs are something out of the late 2000s...or even earlier before the first dual core processor came out in 2005.

If this pc is meant for office work like spreadsheets , powerpoint presentations , online meetings. Theoretically  I'd say it could be good for the use. But as far as I know the office apps are becoming a little bit power demanding (also don't use chrome on this). If you're going to use this for gaming, I don't think you can run anything on this other than ultra low graphics modded cs:go. 

The improvements you're gonna need would be a better cpu (amd athlon), mobo(am4 a320 series), more ram(any brand 4 or 8 gb), a nvidia 710 (if you're gaming), more storage. I think it would be better to buy an old prebuilt if these wouldn't fit in budget.

i think that pc is barely capable of even decade old games and if you're a basic user then it might be good enough on some ligthtweight linux distro or windows xp (if can risk using such old os)

 

at such low budget you're just wasting your money buying full price windows license? jusr get a cheap 3rd party site oem key

 

you can have much better pc at this price, easily a 3200g build with 16gb ram if not 3400g, maybe i3 9th / 10th gen and with a used 750 ti or brand new gt 1030 (those are not affected by current market situation and pretty much selling for mrsp)

I dont trust the used market. Are you saying it wont run Xplane 11

Then consider pre-built PCs or @Luricks PCPartPicker PC.
