All computers have Random Access Memory--RAM. Your model is mainly for business use and is a poor choice for gaming. See the requirements for playing your game.

Pick out the right model of the 3020 and look up the LED light codes in the manual here-.

Dell BIST Test 

And remember, have PC powered off and unplugged anytime working on the inside of it.

There is no 1-3-2 blink pattern listed.  Dell Optiplex Diagnostic Indicators 

Your 3020 could be throwing an incorrect error code.  Before the BIST test, replace the size 2032 CMOS battery if I hasn't been done in the last 5 years.
