I have a 2 year old Dell Vostro 260S Desktop. It has an i3 2120 CPU with HD Graphics 2000. I heard that it is not an outdated cpu and it still runs games at low res. So my mobo also have an extra slot for gpu. I want suggestions of a card less than Rs 5000 from www.flipkart.com or www.snapdeal.com. I also wanted to know for a card less than Rs 5000 should I upgrade PSU or not. If not its ok. Otherwise it will be tough. Thanks in advance.

Stock ones are HORRIBLE, you need to upgrade the PSU as soon as possible, you can get great budget PSU's, like the Corsair CX430!

First, tell me you psu make & model. And by the way, get yourself a hd 4670 even though i doubt if you'll be able to get a decent gaming experience. Try adding a liitle more money and getting yourself a hd 7770 which'll provide you a decent gaming experience.(th hd 7770 is around 100$)

You can get a GTX 750Ti for 150$, it only draws power from the PCIe slot and it would be your best upgrade option at the moment. If you want to get a better card, specially an AMD card if you want Mantle, then you will have to upgrade your PSU as well.

i second that, you need to be upgrading your power supply also just to be on the safe side. for 5000 of that money you were talking about i saw these:

it's not a bronze power supply but your budget is pretty tight and these should be comparable to your system

but i would REALLY spend a little more money and get the GTX 750ti and drop that in your computer and you should be ok

I agree. This GPU is a totally awesome product but of course tell me your specs and especially your Psu make & model rohitjacksaw(pretty lame naming sense you have there, just sayin') If it can support it, get an AMD r7 265(provides great performance, better than the gtx 750 ti)
