Hi,
I'm currently building a cheap pc.
I need a low watt and a very cheap GPU around£10-£25.
I am using a 300 watt PSU
And paring it with a Intel i5 -650(I know it's bad)
 
You might be able to scrounge up an old HD 4670/6670 at those prices. Otherwise, it's probably not worthwhile; while something like a 5450 is a bit more powerful than the integrated graphics on this CPU, it's still not powerful enough to do much that you can't do with the integrated graphics.

An Nvidia 710 GFX card will work well with a 240W PSU. An Nvidia 730 GFX card (much better, get the ddr5 version) might work OK. Beyond that, I don't know. With current GFX card prices, I don't know if that meets your budget.

Your limitation is the PSU, and possibly physical constraints. Since you did not provide additional info, that's as far as I can go.

FWIW, the 710 on a Win 7 PRO computer, with max RAM, with a vintage Intel Core 2 Duo processor will render even modern flight sims at very respectable frame rates, while requiring few user-selected graphics downgrades.
