The computer is a bit dated. The CPU is very weak. You followed my instructions, but doing the msinfo32.exe method only shows the Graphics Card family rather than the exact graphics card, so I can't give an accurate assessment of performance. You have the recommended amount of RAM.
Unfortunately the AM3 socket CPUs are old. They still sell them on places like Amazon, but they are either absurdly overpriced or you would need to find a used one. These will make the cut however. If you are willing and able to upgrade your computer, otherwise you might be better off with a new computer.

I can point you in the direction of some good graphics cards once you find your exact graphics card model. Look at stickers, use Google, backtrack orders, just whatever. Otherwise with that CPU it's not going to run the game well even on low settings.
Thinking more about it, I'd go with some Phenom II X6 or X4 (for the AMD route).
Phenoms have real cores unlike FX-series which share cache between two cores.
This for example is pretty good, with only 95W TDP.
Nevermind I found out it is indeed AM3+ but it says this on the MSI website. Due to some design limitation, this mainboards supports AM3+ CPUs with max 95W. Please refer to the CPU compatability list for details. Looked through the compatability list and found this would this be good to get?
