The cheapest graphics card upgrades suck, but you should be able to get a GT610 for around $35. Otherwise the best card worth upgrading the system with would be an AMD HD 7770. Anything higher would be slowed down by the other components.

I would get a 6670/6570

What is your power supply, there could be 300 watt or 350 watt, the last one has 6 pin GPU power connector, 300 watt doesn't.

And by desktop you mean Mini Tower or Slim version?

I wish to watch video and edit movies etc. No gaming. I ended up buying an AMD HD 5450 and it's definitely better than what I had but could be better. However not when the price tag is considered. For the money it was worth it for my intended use.
