Hello guys!!!
I'm a Dota 2 player and living in a 3rd world country. First of all, let me mention that I only play Dota 2 and I don't want to play any other graphics demanding games.
Here's the specs of my current PC. :D

CPU - Pentium G2020
Graphics card - Asus GT610 2GB
Motherboard - Asus H61M-E
RAM - 4GB DDR3
Monitor - 1980x1080 resolution

With this specs, I can play Dota 2 at lowest video settings on 1080p resolution. FPS is around 30+. It's quite playable even though it's not really eye pleasing. Since I'm on a extremely tight budget, :( I want to upgrade only my Graphic card so that I can play Dota 2 at respectable ( maybe max? :p ) video settings on 1080p resolution. I don't think i have enough money to upgrade my CPU and other parts. I'm considering to buy some Chinese branded GTX 550 ti on Taobao. Hers's the links. :)

It's priced at only $34 :D. Note that it's second hand. :) For me, I think it's really reasonable cuz I want the cost as low as possible. So guys .. which graphic cards would you recommend to buy?? Do you think G2020+GTX 550 ti could do that??? What are your opinions?? Pls help me guys!! Thanks! :D <3 <3
 
Solution
That 550ti is likely just a scam, I'd rather avoid it entirely than risk getting a card that's fake.

Consider the GT730 64-bit 1GB GDDR5 card, should serve your needs for cheap.
