probably go with something like a RX 460 or GTX 1050 

you could get a better one depending on your power supply

This is what I worry about, the 1050 is pretty much new tech, won't the cpu bottleneck it? or the board itself? keep in mind it's ddr2 ram for example, so maybe an older gpu should be considered?

In games that require CPU horsepower then yes you will see a noticeable bottleneck but in games that require GPU horsepower it will be totally fine.

Yes but that doesn't mean you shouldn't get good modern hardware. If it's in your price range why not get a GTX 1050? Would you rather purposefully get a weaker GPU at the same price?

You are pretty much good to go,even 1050ti would work fine
