At 720p, you can get by nicely with an HD 7750: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=100007709&IsNodeId=1&Description=hd%207750&bop=And&Order=PRICE&PageSize=20
But with a Corsair 500W PSU and FX-6300, you can go with a fa$ter gfx card if you want to spend the money. Do you have a budget limit for a card?

Btw, you may not like that green drive for a boot drive. Green drives are intended to be used as additional storage because they are slower and tend to spin down when idle.

Here are a selection of faster gfx cards that fall in that price range and will work with your 500W PSU:

For a boot drive you can use any 7200RPM SATA II or III HDD you like. Just avoid the 'green' drives if you want better response time. I like Western Digital and Seagate.

Then my friend, you're either screwed or have enough money to pay for a little trip to the capital of freedom because they won't ship to Indonesia for sure.
