Hi ajit85dsd

At another Forum you have posted your computer specs in a similar manner and with the same question.
"But" at that other Forum you post that you have 2.25GB RAM installed,
Whereas, here you state you have 256mb RAM

Which is it?

"If" that machine only has 256mb RAM, then that is where I would upgrade.

Tell us what you are hoping to achieve by installing a "low end" graphics card.

Unless you have a definite purpose you wish to achieve, your onboard graphics may perform adequately.
But the machine does need adequate RAM, particularly because your onboard graphics is presently stealing sharing 128mg of the RAM that you do have.

Please also tell us what Windows Operating System you are running.
With the relatively limited hardware you may have, I'm guessing XP?

I have 2.25gb ram & operating system XP and my onboard graphics doesn't play latest game.

I am a casual gamer and want to install a low end card

and which has clock speed good and support Shader Version 5

and run in all os. 1-2 gb graphics memory should be sufficient. my budget is Rs. 3000

PLzzz suggest me to which graphics card will be best for my pc????

I can tell you that the PCI-E will not do for the latest game software on the market. It might run some of the games, but the graphic quality will be very poor. I would probably upgrade it with an aftermarket GPU using at least 1gb of DDR2:
