It will work but won't see the full 4GB. A 32 bit OS will recognize about 3.25GB

That's a slim budget (comparing the conversion to USD = roughly $85); I'm not sure what's available locally but a Radeon HD 6570 or GeForce 640 is about the best you might be able to find.

Yes you can upgrade up to 4gb on 32 bit windows, any more than 4gb is wasted.
If I was you I'd save up more money (around 7000 INR) and get something like a HD 7770

if i install 64 bit would my pc become slow than before?

I would not put a dime into a PC that outdated it is just not worth it. Save your money build a new one.

Installling a 64bit will not slow your computer as long as your processor supports 64bit operations. OS will only slow your computer if your hardware is not up to the task (this mainly being CPU)

So is my processor good for mid end gaming and other stuffs?
