You will need an upgrade in my opinion. Really any intel quad core will work according to the LTT video and an rx 470 or better GPU. 8 gb of ram also.

Budget and currency/location? Your best option would be to upgrade to an i5, perhaps a used Haswell if your budget is tight. I wouldnt be a bad idea to upgrade your GPU either, perhaps a 470. Defiantly get a PSU, that isnt very good (or safe).

you should be able to play at medium-high with your setup. i'd recommend swapling out to a gtx 1050ti, or if you really can, an rx 470.

try for an i5 6400 and a gtx 1050ti/rx 470. if you're really strapped for cash you can buy a ddr3 skylake mobo to reuse your ram.

Its not about the wattage, its about the quality. Its very poor quality (As is most of CM PSUs). A "Good amount" isnt very clear. I cant recommend much until I know more.
