can you post more detail of your system, motherboard model, psu, and cpu ect. so we can check if its actually limited to 1.0x16

if you budget is 10k and wanna the best card the in theory a 590 or HD6990 works with 1.0x16,

or you can get any entry level card since the motherboard is obviously old and bottleneck it.

or invest in a new system altogether

All the pci-e gpu are backwards compatible .i.e. PCI-E 2.0 is compatible with pci-e 1.0. You can run any latest pci-e 2.0 graphics card in your MB with lower speed. So if your budget is 10k INR and you have a good 550 to 600 watt psu then go for nvidia 560 or amd 6870. If your psu is lower than that then get a amd 6670.
