Answer
A rating of 4.8 on the Windows Experience Index is considered to be at the low end, and I'm almost positive that the bottleneck is the the video card. The GT 610 is not going to "cut it" when it comes to games like Skyrim.

You need to upgrade the video card and most likely the Power Supply to support it.

As of October 2013, what are the best deals on computer components for a gaming computer?

I have an 800 dollar budget. Though I probably won't be trying to run Crisis 3 on high graphics, I want to be able to run similar games with nice graphics.

Answer
parts for a gaming PC for under $800 (without the SSD) that can play Crysis 3 on high settings

a SSD is nice to have for a fast system boot but not compelling
