Don't know about Dota specifically but the general rule of thumb is, DX9 for old gfx cards, DX11 for new gfx cards and OpenGL only for when DX/any-other-api isn't available or doesn't work correctly.

Use dx9 for that GPU. Also use the lowest settings you can bear within DOTA 2's Video settings.

 

You can also do Step 3 from https://esportsedition.com/dota-2/best-dota-2-performance-settings-guide/

CPU: Sempron 2500+ / P4 2.8E / P4 2.6C / A64 x2 4000+ / E6420 / E8500 / i5-3470 / i7-3770
GPU: TNT2 M64 / Radeon 9000 / MX 440-SE / 7300GT / Radeon 4670 / GTS 250 / Radeon 7950 / 660 Ti
