Need to know the rest of the components, that will be going with this. Power supply being the most important item.

 

[Sambarta]

Sorry about the interruption due to cyclone.
My power supply is Zebronic 450 W.
Motherboard is DH61WW and graphics card is Geforce 210. Now what are the changes should I make

Is something wrong with your current motherboard? If it is still working i wouldn't bother replacing it... Just add a better GPU, The GTX 750 Ti is probably your best option without also needing to upgrade the PSU. (The PSU you have is really pretty bad)

 

[Sambarta]

What about the R9 270X or R9280.Is it better than the GTX 750Ti ?
Will the R9 270 X or 280 bottleneck the pc or not ?
Also what about GTX 780 ti ?

You would need to buy a new PSU if you wanted to use any of those GPUs.

Which one is better GTX 780 ti or R9 270X OC or R9 280X ?
From these 3 which one is the best for intel i3 2120 3.3GHz processor.If you have any better solution Plz share!!!

The 780ti, and the 280x WILL FRY your Power supply when you push the cards, also your cpu may not be able to keep up.

The 270X PROBABLY WILL FRY you power supply as your psu is not a high quality psu.

If I were to sync any money aside from a 750ti in your system I would build a new one.

That PSU has to go, before you bother doing anything else. Pick a Tier 1 or Tier 2 unit, 550w or higher.

For GPU, your i3 would be best paired with a R7 370. Anything more, and that older i3, will start to bottleneck.

Now if I change my PSU to the required will my Processor take it ? and its compatible motherboard ? because I am having some difficulties with my MB

 

[Sambarta]

Now which 750ti should I choose ?

You will have no issues with compatibility, when getting a new, quality, power supply. I wouldn't choose a 750ti, when you can get a better card for a similar cost.

 

[Sambarta]

So which is your answer ?

If you don't want to replace a lot of stuff get just the GTX 750 Ti:

Really this is going to be a good balance for your current CPU, If you want to get a better video card you will need to buy a new PSU, I'd also recommend getting a new motherboard and CPU to get the full performance out of a better GPU, if you do all this it is going to cost you about $600 though (If you could give us a budget range it would make it easier to help you):

Another option would be to just get the PSU and GPU in the above list and then later get a new CPU/motherboard.
