To Akash_Raj. Do I have to upgrade the power suply if i choose to do that??

Dude your motherboard does not have a PCI express x16 slot. So you will need to buy outdated PCi slot graphics card.
It is really difficult to get a good PCI slot graphics card these days.
Here try this one:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814187057

It is a decent NVIDIA 9400GT. It will run modern latest games in medium settings. And it is well within you price level.

But really you computer is very old. The processor is really outdated. It would be better if you could upgrade it.
If you think of upgradation, then get these:
Processor: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103688
Motherboard: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130243
Graphics Card: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121338

Total would be $144 and you have a modern gaming PC to run all new games in MAX settings.
