a 650ti or 7750/7790 might be an option. Really though your wasting money. The old C2D was a good chip in it's day, and although it still good for most things, isn't going to be a future proof gaming rig or anything remotely similar. The cards above, would be a balanced match with your system. Just don't expect stellar performance with that system.

The cost of the cards is prob around 100-150. If I were you I would save that money, add another couple of hundred, and look at a new entry level gaming system, which will serve you much better.

well the reason I suggested those cards, is because they are balanced with the power of your system. There might be a minor bottleneck in certain situations, but because the system is so old, any GFX card more powerful than the ones I mentioned will definitely have a bottleneck. THe CPU is just weak by today's standards.

I'm in a similar position, in that I have a q6600 @ 3ghz. Its still holding it's own playing most games very well. But with BF4, FC3 and Crysis 3, I have most definitely reached then end of the gaming line , and have to look at an upgrade.
