New GPU for my old pc

Solution
can you find a Nvidia GT 720 or GT 730 to use? I mean that is pretty weak system, you would benefit if it can handle it more RAM for sure,
but anything over an HD 5000 Series video card would be pointless.

I think he or she understands this, since this is their current computer. Not everyone can afford to just run out and spend $500 dollars on a new build. Maybe their looking to be able to run Skyrim or something, which could be done on that CPU. Of course it is difficult to suggest items but how about something that could transfer over to a new MOBO. How about a 1050?
1050 mini, works easily on 300w, doesn't require anything other then PCIe slot and can be used when you upgrade MOBO
1050 for $109

True, that would make sense to get used or old but a lot of cards from that era seem to need more power, so a 9800 would need maybe 400w and that would be pushing it.
Probably Paladin was on to something but those 720-730 gtx always are way overpriced.
I think 750ti or 1050. The 1050 would both because no external cord is needed.
