Buddy, download software called CPU-Z and run it on your system. You will be seeing different tabs like CPU, Motherboard, SPD etc. Check each of the tabs and get the exact name of your processor and motherboard, then post it here.

@pawannarwani91, your system is of ancient build. don't waste money getting a graphics card. instead consider upgrading your system.

Your PC will bottleneck a graphic card no matter which current gen GPU you put in. Full Upgrade recommended and necessary :wink:

i like to full update my computer
but i have a computer with i7 and with graphic card
but i just want to update my old computer with simple graphic card which my small brother can play simple game under 18 rating game like vice city, james bond, etc....

get HD6450. don't waste more money on this old PC. ASUS HD6450 Silent or MSI R6450-MD1GD3 LP

Since your little brother will be playing, who won't be bothered by DirectX 9, 10 or 11, my suggestion is HD 4650 DDR2 version. Price is same as HD 6450 but offers better gaming performance.

Here is the link: Flipkart: XFX AMD/ATI Radeon HD 4650 1 GB DDR2 Graphics Card: Graphics Card

motherboard have a PCIe X 16 slot? it'll support a 7800GT as well as a HD7990. just you need a PCIe slot. thats all. check that motherboard have PCIe slot. if it have AGP slot or PCI slot then its game over for that PC.
