Depends on your budget. Check this article out: http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/best-graphics-card-gaming-performance,review-32301.html

Also, what is his power supply? for an advanced video card you'd want at least 500 W one.

There's really no point since his graphics bus interface is AGP 4X.
AGP gpu's are hard to find and when you do =expensive
It's very outdated by today's standards.
A newer platform is more viable.

Both require 400W psu.
