My system specifications are:

Pentium D 2.8 GHz
2GB RAM 800 Mhz
nForce 630i/7100 Motherboard (PCI-E 1.0a slot)
500 GB SATA HD
9500 GT 1GB DDR2
550 Watt Power Supply

I would like to upgrade my graphics card to a GTX 260 or a HD 5770. Please suggest me one to run all the games on my PC. Ill upgrade my CPU later.
Can you also tell me if the PCI E 1.0a slot can support any of the two cards which are 2.0 and 2.1 respectively.
