you are looking at a circa 2006-7 cpu so you should be looking at circa 2006-7 mid range gpu power. something like a GT 730 or HD 4770 would be a good pairing for that. for instance, I have an e6750 and an HD 4770 sitting here. I really need to get around to testing the 4 sticks of ram to see which is still good in order to get that system up and running again so i understand where youre coming from
