I do have a Intel Pentium G640 @ 2.8GHz processor and a 6Gb RAM. And I don't know what's the best video card that will not bottleneck my gaming experience.

Btw I'm playing League of Legends and some rpg games. And from Philippines. I also prefer a quality video card that will fit my budget.

I don't know what 'some rpg games' means. Playing something like Pillar of Eternity is completely different from World of Warcraft which is different than Witcher 3 in videocard requirements.

However, since you have a Sandy Bridge era dual core, I can say that you have lots of inexpensive options. It doesn't make sense to spend too much on a videocard for that system. Of new cards I'd recommend a GT 1030. You might even be happy with a GT 730 DDR5 card, although I wouldn't recommend it. On the used market, I'd say anything from a GTX 650 Ti to GTX 750 Ti would be good for you. Look for 2gb vram cards if you can find one.

You don't mention your power supply. Assuming you have a basic 300W or so power supply, then the 750 Ti or GT 1030...

Thankyou for answering. Btw, I do have a 700W PSU but it is a low quality brand PSU here in the Philippines. Don't mind "some rpg games", my very concern is at least I can play League of Legends with a stable 60+fps. I found Geforce GT710 1GB (for $36), I know its a low-profile but would you recommend it for me?

Last question, if I choose GTX 650 Ti or GTX 750 Ti, it will be compatible to my motherboard Joshua-H61-uATX (Joshua)?
