What is the best graphics card i can get that will play games at low to medium, maybe high settings?

I have a Compaq Presario Media Center SR2011WM Desktop PC. I have already upgraded the PSU to 400, maxed out the ram to 2gb and changed my cpu to a Intel Pentium D 3.00Ghz. Im also running windows 7 professional 32bit.

a 6670 to a 7770 to an r7 260............ didn't check a price on that........I wouldn't go too big because of the dual core cpu limitations and the very restrictive ram limitation. ...... what resolution is your monitor?

I play some games on my 720p TV. the 5450 is not enough. and it won't be very good for DayZ. if you want to keep the expense low.......... a 6670............ http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/ite...

it'll be better but your whole system is still slow by today's standards.

Do you think the GDDR5 version of the 6670 1GB is compatible with my system?
