I own an eMachines EL1321-02c and its current specification is as followed:
Winfows 7 Home Premium - English/French
AMD Athlon II X2 Dual-Core Processor 215 (2.7Ghz, 512K x 2 L2 cache)
20" LCD
640GB hard drive
3GB DDR2 SDRAM
Super-Multi drive, NVIDIA GeForce 6150SE
I am willing to upgrade the graphic card for gaming, is there anyone who can suggest me a couple of them so that I can make my final choice from the same, Thanks in advance.
If it is having PCI-E slot then any of the below card will work:
- EVGA 512-P3-1300-LR GeForce 8400 GS 512MB 32-bit DDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready Low Profile Video Card EVGA 01G-P3-1302-LR GeForce 8400 GS 1GB 64-bit DDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready Low Profile Ready Video Card
- MSI N8400GS-MD512H GeForce 8400 GS 512MB 64-bit DDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready Video Card
- EVGA 01G-P3-1312-LR GeForce 210 1GB 64-bit DDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready Low Profile Video Card
- ASUS 8400GS-1GD3-SL GeForce 8400 GS 1GB 64-bit DDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready Video Card
- MSI N8400GS-MD512H/TC GeForce 8400 GS 512MB DDR3 (Turbocache 1GB) 64-bit DDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready Low Profile Video Card
- ECS N8400GSC-512QN-H2 GeForce 8400 GS 512MB 64-bit DDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready Video Card
You can get them from ebay at a decent price.
If there is no much difference between eMachines ET133140e and your eMachines EL1321-02c then it might be having a 220 watt psu. If it so then you will have to upgrade the psu as well while updating the video card. You can go through the below card and check out the cards and the psu that has been mentioned for eMachines ET133140e if it is similar to eMachines EL1321-02c.

I have tried finding out detail regarding the specification of eMachines EL1321-02c but have not got any luck. Anyways I wanted to add that if it can handle 1 gb video card then you have below better choices:
- MSI R5450-MD1GD3H/LP Radeon HD 5450 1GB 64-bit DDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready Low Profile Video Card
- MSI N210-MD1G/D3 GeForce 210 1GB 64-bit DDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready Low Profile Ready Video Card
- ZOTAC ZT-20313-10L GeForce 210 1GB 64-bit DDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready Low Profile Ready Video Card
- EVGA 01G-P3-1313-KR GeForce 210 1GB 64-bit DDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready Low Profile Ready Video Card
- They are available at new egg within $35.
If you are planning to upgrade to 1 gb video card then I will like to inform you that you will have to get 450 watt psu for the same. In that case Corsair CMPSU-450VX 450-Watt will be the best choice. It is Compatible with the ATX12V v2.2 standard and is capable of providing maximum power stability for 1 gb and higher graphics card as well. It delivers reliable output for high-end computers as well. You can get it from new egg but you will have to check out for its availability.
Even I am having eMachine EL1321-02c and I have recently installed ATI sapphire Radeon HD 4650 512MB low profile in it. If you want then you can update to 1 GB card but if you are willing to get a 512MB low profile card then ATI sapphire Radeon HD 4650 will be the best choice:
