Something else you can do... as these are the 7010 version and not the 2010/3010.. you have more cpu options. Instead of being limited to say an I5... you could pick up a used 3770 cpu for about 50 bucks and drop that in. That would immediately buff up this system and open up your options.
This would give you a 4 core 8 thread cpu with better boost speeds. Then you would have more options come open. You could buy a new case / power supply and transpant that system in it. Then add a decent graphics cards for a good gaming rig.
You could also keep everything like it is and pick up something along the lines of a 1050 or 1050ti. This would also give you great 1080p gaming potential for a very minimal cost. 50 (cpu) 130-160 (gpu) so for around 200 you could have a fully capable gaming machine.
