So guys I'm stuck with 9800 GT 512mb. Should I buy another one to SLI them or just to buy new graphics card ?
My PC specs:
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E4600 @ 2,83 GHZ
MB: Asus P5L 1394
RAM: 2GB 667MHz (planning to upgrade to 4)
GPU: Nvidia GeForce 9800 GT 512MB DDR3
 
it's a fairly old system (12 yrs?)
likely you will need ebay or craiglist for cheaper parts.
i'm not sure if the mobo support c2d8xxx/c2q9xxx cpus

your cpu is also a problem, you want to upgrade to 8 gb,($30-50) q6600 or higher quadcore cpu ($20-40)

graphic card, you can get a used gtx 960 4gb (prefer 4gb, your ram is too slow, you don't want vram to get full) for around ($70~$100)

that should handle a number of games cs:go, pubg, fornite for low/medium setting at 40~60 fps.
