Which graphic card should i buy supporting my mobo to play get decent fps at 1366x768?

My mobo is a bit old. It has ddr2 ram.
Detailed pc specs are -
2.99Ghz core 2 duo
2 gb ram(thinking of upgrading to 4)
ecs g31t m7 v 1.0 motherboard
bt-450 psu 450w
samsung 18.5" monitor 1366 x 768 resolution

I know that to play at high graphics i should upgrade my mobo and therefore my proccsr n ram too but i dont hv that much budget right now. Thus i m thinking of buying a cheap but playable gpu for the time being.

Also i dont want the gpu to be bottlenecked by my ram, so please dont suggest those.

Plz tell which gpu's should i consider. Additional advices are welcome too.

I m looking upon-
Radeon 6670 ddr3
Radeon 6670 gddr5
nvidia 630 synergy.
U can suggest other than these too

The GeForce GTX 650 only has a 1% to 2% performance advantage over the Radeon HD 7750 and costs about 6.5% more. You wouldn't even notice the performance difference.

The Radeon HD 7770 GHz Edition has a 25% performance advantage over the GeForce GTX 650 but only cost about 5% more. If you can't find a Radeon HD 7770 GHz Edition...


Those two cards require a 6-pin PCI Express supplementary power connector from the power supply unit and I highly doubt that your PSU has one.

I m new in this forum and i like this more than any other i've been to earlier. Here i can see experienced people actually giving a min to help someone. Thanx a lot guyz.

Btw,i like the option for 7750 and R7 250. Do i have any nvidia options too. What do u guyz think bout gtx 650. Its benchmarks are good, should i consider it?

Also, bout my psu, i know that-
Model- bt-450
Specs- 22 A and 12V rails.

The Radeon HD 7770 GHz Edition has a 25% performance advantage over the GeForce GTX 650 but only cost about 5% more. If you can't find a Radeon HD 7770 GHz Edition, the Radeon R7 250X is just a re-badged version of that same card. The Radeon HD 7770 GHz Edition is the card with the best Price/Performance ratio out of all of the cards you're looking at.
