I am going ot say either a GTX 750ti or a GTX 760. Honestly it depends on how much you want to spend, what games you play, and what power supply you have.
But in all honesty, With only 2GB of Ram and a dual core CPU, I am probably not going to recommend anything more than a GTX 750 ti to at most a GTX 760 graphics card.

need more info.
2.8GHz could be an early core 2 duo or a new haswell i3-4xxx - and there is a BIG difference between the two.
Budget and usage is another key point for giving advice. If you want to play at 900P you don't need as much of a GPU as at 1440P (and nothing in comparison to a 4K or triple 1080P display).

Are you sure about that?

an i3-4130 (@$125) averages 80% of the performance of an i7-4790k (@$340)
Granted, one could argue the 4690K is bottlenecked because it gives up an average 5% performance vs the 4790K. IMHO bottlenecks need to cause a much more serious performance drop than 20%, especially when pared with a graphics system that costs several times more than the CPU.

An i3 at its best is still not an ideal processor for gaming. A modern quad core Intel processor will outperform a modern Intel dual core any day of the week. Unless one is AMD, then they just think that the more cores the better. I am just waiting for AMD to come out with a 400 watt TDP processor that has 32 cores that no motherboard can truly support, lol.
So what graphics card would you recommend here for a computer with 2GB of RAM and lets just say for the benefit of the doubt, a Haswell i3?
I doubt the computer has more than the stock power supply, but obviously my suggestions of a 750ti or a 760 must not be good matches to your standards. What do you recommend? A 970 GTX that only requires a 500 watt power supply? Or, An AMD card of similar performance that we both know is less efficient than the Nvidia cards are of this generation?

It depends.
If someone is planning to do a GPU upgrade now and replace the guts of the system later - I have no issue to advise someone to go for a higher end GPU.
If funds are limited and little PSU headroom a 750TI is a good choice.
If an i3 haswell and 2GB of ram - I'd suggest a ram upgrade to go along with the GPU upgrade.
OP didn't say what GPU they have now - could be a 480 or something there in which case the 750TI would be a downgrade.

Lets just say that you are right and that they are running a 480 GTX. The 750ti actually consumes much less power, produces much less heat, is much more efficient, produces DirectX 12 graphics when they are released, and is much quieter. Besides, The 750 Ti FTW might be close to performance to a 480 GTX due to the high overclock.
A 750 ti performs at about the same level as a 660, which performs at almost the same level as a 480.
If the OP lives near a Microcenter, the 580 GTX still sells there for less than $150 and could even be a good buy.
As I saw the post, The person was only asking about a graphics card. Of course more RAM is better and I would agree with your sentiment that it would be a worthwhile recommendation.
I also agree with you that if they would replace the guts of the system, Of course one would recommend a higher graphics card than what suits their current system.
So, I guess all we can do is wait for more information then.
