Definitely go used, and try and get something with at least 2GB VRAM, 4GB if you can afford it. What's your max budget, and what area are you in? We can check around on Craigslist and such to find you a good deal.

Save your money for a little while and get something better, $50 won't go very far.

 

From what I'm seeing, 750Ti's go for around $100 used, and they're about the minimum I'd suggest.

Specs: CPU - Intel i7 8700K @ 5GHz | GPU - Gigabyte GTX 970 G1 Gaming | Motherboard - ASUS Strix Z370-G WIFI AC | RAM - XPG Gammix DDR4-3000MHz 32GB (2x16GB) | Main Drive - Samsung 850 Evo 500GB M.2 | Other Drives - 7TB/3 Drives | CPU Cooler - Corsair H100i Pro | Case - Fractal Design Define C Mini TG | Power Supply - EVGA G3 850W

Just use the onboard graphics at the moment, don't waste your money on a 710 as it's worse than the onboard graphics you have on your CPU.

Look for R7 360, R7 265, HD 7870, HD 7850, GTX 460, GTX 750Ti, GTX 280. They all tend to go for very cheap and are all better than the GT710, much better.
