Does anyone know if they are worth it or if they are upgradable?

I have old video cards etc, not to mention strange ram in the spares bin.

I need a computer that just gets on the internet and does some WP and plays simple rts games for my son.

I have a usb modem so it doesn't need a modem.

Still on dial-up

it may be something similar to this,
