GeForce GT 440 - GTX 650 2048MB are 2 different video cards if anything. 650 is more powerful. But both will fit.
Here it is important to see what version of PCIe the video card and motherboard support. GT 440 supports 2.0, GTX 650 supports 3.0. But since the motherboard only supports 2.0, you won't see any difference in performance. So you can take the GTX 650 only if you have plans to upgrade your computer.
Your scores won't change much. The fact is that the playability in games depends not only on the video card, but your computer is very weak (for games).
You can change the vidyuhi, but with the prospect of parting with your mother and everything else - the old AM2 socket, the old nForce chipset, the old DDR2 and a maximum of 4 gigabytes. It is necessary to change the mother, percent, RAM immediately and half measures will not do here. If an upgrade is not expected, you will not receive much growth.
I may be saying heresy, but I don’t understand why change junk for junk. I understand the prices now are such that even stand, even fall, but still. Why spend hard-earned money on something that is already obsolete? I don't know if the 6th generation is still on sale or not.
If we are still talking about the used market, then maybe it’s worth updating both the mother and the processor on the same used market so that some 950 could be put there? I understand that many can be tight with money, but then you doubly need to think ahead and not spend money on something that you want to change in a year, and maybe even earlier.
I suppose that now a bunch of cards from those who will change the vidyuhi to the GTX 1080/1070 will pour out on the used market. There will be the 7th line of the card and the 9th one will also be there for sure. You just need to wait a bit.
