Hey guys, I'm looking for a new graphic card for gaming mostly, since my old one is pretty much outdated. I browsed many forums, but I want a direct answer so I don't mess anything up.
This are my modest PC specs:

Motherboard - Gigabyte M52L-S3, PCI-E 1.0 x16
CPU - AMD Athlon 64 X2 5200+, 2.70GHz
RAM - 2x2GB
Current graphic card - ATI Radeon HD 3800 Series, 256MB
Power supply - LC420H-12 420W (If needed, I will get stronger)

Budget is 100€.
If you need anything else, I will be more then happy to tell you.
Thank you!

Get a GTX750Ti if you can afford it, or a GTX750. Your CPU will bottleneck anything stronger, and neither of those will need a PSU upgrade.

I'll consider it, thanks. But what would you recommend with current PSU? Case if I buy this card, my whole budget would be spent and I would have to delay and save some more money for better cpu.
I kinda need gpu boost asap. Thanks.

I looked it up. Im blown away. It exceeded my expectations for performance/money ratio! Thank you very much!
Although my only fear now is, that it won't work with pci-e 1.0 slot. I read that its backward compatible, but I also read that it wasn't...

True.
How much do you think it decreases performance of card? By half? 1/3? 1/100 maybe ^^?
