Hi, basroil 
I have little explored. My budget is about 300 KM, thats about 200 Dolars.
As i said, my country is diffrent about price and posibility. So i have this what i have.
1) HP 7990 Tower ( e8600, ddr2 4GB, 250HD, and PSU about 300-365 ) ""150""
2) Dell Optilex 390 Mid-Tower ( i3-2120, 4GB ddr3, Hdd 160 GB, and psu 200-300 ) ""250""
3) There is also Dell Tower ( q6600 4GB ddr2, HDD 320 GB, PSU 450 ) ""170 KM""
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I get windows 7 with it.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Available cards:
5770 - 90 KM ( used )
gt730 1gbddr3 - 120 ( new )...

Look i am not in usa, and i am not even in EU, so this is the modest and cheaper as it can be. I cant order shipment in my country i need to pay tax on border i need to wait i need to search, its "cost" of "time, money and energy" and it would be more expensive. This PC is in my city, it has warranty, its 120 , Graphic Card is about 80-100. And i only need to know will it be able for me to have that card in that cpu, will that be ok. Do i need to buy other supply or motherboard if i need to do that than i agree to buy better pc.

You need to state that up front.
The computer you are describing is about 8 years old. It will not play many games all that well unless they are ~5 years old by now or you are willing to have stutter spikes. Of the cards you mentioned, only the 5770 is DX11 capable, and even so it may be unable to run some games properly since the driver support ended ages ago.
If i can play dx9 and dx10 games properly on hig i would be more than glad. Because later i will plan to buy i5 skylake. But for now i want this because i had pc amd with one core and ati radeon 9600 and i could not play even some dx9 properly. But my monitor is 20 inch samsung and ram was 1 gb

At that point you start going into the downward spiral of shitty parts that cost too much. It's like buying a crappy used car you plan on fixing up as you go. It ends up being much cheaper just getting something more expensive but much better
I wont put i5 in that i will buy later new pc with i5 , but now i need this cheap,, my question was.. am i capable to have on this config card as geforce 8800 , and even 5770 or 4870. That is my question. And what do i need to be able use Radeon on that config.
Config is e8500, ddr2 4 gb i dont know what is motherboard and power suply. its mybe 335. If someone know mybe what motherboard goes with hp7900 or hp 8000. what are my solutions for graphic card. what is best for me to put in that config ? Thats my question. What i am able to put of grpahic cards, what would be best solution which card for dx9 and dx10 that i can play on hig at least 1280 resolution or 1650.

Hi, i found it. For tower 7900 CMT "power suply" is ( 365-W ). Processor is e8600, ddr2 4gb. Chipset is intel q45 express. Am i able to run radeon 4870, 5770, geforce 8800. What is your suggestion for me to put in it. I have read that 750ti is best solution, but its expensive for me now. I can finde radeon 4870 and 5770 and 8800 gt for "80" used and 750ti is about "200" new and pc i am buying is "120" used with waranty.
So what should i do ? Would i buy 750ti new, would that be best and safest solution. Is 750ti to powerful for this config ?
My monitor resolution is 1680x. Or should i put some older card ?
I woul like to play older games also dx9 and dx10. Mybe to put dual windows xp and 7. Pls help.

750Ti might not boot on that system, it's very hit or miss with anything below sandy bridge (i3/i5/i7 2000 series)
Your best bet is that 5770, not spectacular but works just fine for light gaming on my HTPC (when it had the E8600)
oki, thank you.
PS: there is also del optilex 790 with i5 2400, chipset or socket 1155, motherboard dell not sure, and psu 80+gold dell, and ddr3 4gb. It cost 300 without card. Mybe to go with that, but 750ti is 200 new. Than it would cost me 500.
And this pc is 120 cost, and 5770 is about 100.

For $500 you can probably build yourself a decent i3 4320 based system with a 950(in most parts of the world, used of course for any place other than US/uk)
Like I said earlier, the core 2 duo + 5770 will probably work, but don't expect to play anything newer than ~2013 with any reasonable success.

3) There is also Dell Tower ( q6600 4GB ddr2, HDD 320 GB, PSU 450 ) ""170 KM""
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I get windows 7 with it.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Available cards:
5770 - 90 KM ( used )
gt730 1gbddr3 - 120 ( new )
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So I was planing to buy Dell with i3 and 5770. Mybe i would take my old psu 400W. Only i am woried will I be able to put 5770 in mid-tower.
So what do you think would be best solution for gaming dx9, dx10 as CDMW 1 & 2, Crysis, BF3.

Absolutely none of those will play at reasonable framerates and quality settings even at your resolution, the 5770 is just not all that powerful (http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/radeon-hd-5770,2446-7.html). All of those towers have critical problems, but the one that will likely last the longest is the Dell Optilex 390, but only if it's the tower version and not the SFF one. There's only so much you can do with a budget that low. If you can wait and save up double, then you might be able to get something that didn't already suck back in 2009
