HD 6670 between those two, I'd still recommend saving up a lot more money and upgrading CPU/MOBO/RAM/GPU.. I did what you're doing now and it was the biggest mistake.
For now I recommend saving up and getting a 750ti or a 760 to avoid buyers remorse. but bear in mind that either of those two will be bottlenecked by your slow processor.
the HD6670 wont but I still recommend you save up money and do a new build altogether.

Neither is considered to be even an entry level gaming card.
Plan on spending $100-$150 for a decent card.
That might be a GT730, 7770, R7-260x or GTX750ti depending on your budget.
Your psu can handle any of them, and your cpu is fine.

If you're looking to save money with fairly decent/good performance - I'd get an Nvidia 750 Ti hands down. I have it on a fairly high end computer and it plays every game I throw at it. Get the Nvidia 750 Ti (Ti version + 2GB version), then save up to upgrade other parts. Plus, the 750 Ti draws less power and is the newest Nvidia architecture at a very affordable price.
if i buy GTX 750 TI i worried for bottlenecks , and if its bottlenecks i will upragde my processor to E8400
So GTX 750 Ti can run on my PC ? without bottlenecks ?
if bottlenecks i will upragde my Processor to E8400
i worried about bottlenecks
i have budget $150

I completely disagree with the above statement. You will waste your money getting a cheaper video card at this point. Main reason is if you get the 750 Ti, you can always upgrade your cpu/motherboard and keep the 750Ti. If you get a faster processor for an older motherboard and bought a cheap video card, you would of wasted $200 easily and will still have to upgrade everything.
As for video games, your video card (gpu) is the most important part of your system. Second will be your CPU. So it will be wiser to get a 750Ti rather than a 6670, 730, etc.. spend an extra $40 or so and get a much better card, i.e. the 750Ti. Then you can upgrade your cpu.
As for bottlenecks, in more often than none, many bottlenecks stem from having a slower video card. CPU's main purpose is for physics and isn't used nearly as much as displaying images, how fast textures show, draw distance, etc.. - all the things a video card is responsible for.
*** Trust me. Get AT LEAST a 750 Ti 2GB. You can always move it to your next computer build. After you get a 750Ti, then start saving up for a new motherboard and CPU. Your motherboard is very very old and is using the DDR2 standard. DDR4 will be coming out at the end of the year so it makes absolutely no sense to buy a new CPU for your current motherboard and shaft out on the video card.

Thank you, i will update my system soon

Yes you will be absolutely fine with a 750Ti. Make sure you get the 2GB version!!!
I have it and I'm saving up for Nvidia 870 when it comes out. So far, the 750Ti has been playing every game I have - Watch Dogs, BF 4, etc..
This is what I have and EVGA is the most reliable nvidia card manufacturer:

Yes you will be fine with PCI Express 1. However, just note that your video card will run a little slower as it's 1.0/1.1 vs 2.0/3.0 but NOT drastically much. So when you eventually upgrade your cpu and motherboard, you'll notice a difference.
As for backwards compatibility, PCI-E 1.1 should be backward compatible but check with your mobo specifications. I looked and it didn't indicate 1.0 vs 1.1, etc.. It did see PCI-E 16x which is a good start so I think you're good
