Have you tried using the onboard graphics on the motherboard if it works fine? What I can see here is that your graphics card might be starting to die. If you want to buy a new graphics card, it should depend also on the CPU of the computer so you can avoid bottlenecks. You can try searching for the same graphics card

Before you retire the machine, you might want to have a professional technician or friend who knows computers take a look.
I would first try to re-seat video card and PCIe power cables to it.
Note: This machine has NO on-board graphics. For testing, any PCIe video card should work (even if small/ low-powered one).
