Hey why don't you all recommend he gets the PCI-E x1 to PCI-E x16 adapter so he can use that x16 card when he upgrades?
 
Why not just upgrade now? Oh yeah the money :suspiciou

Here's the best answer. Wait until you can afford to update the whole lot ;)

Because the adapter enables one out of the total 16 PCI-E lanes, effectively crippling the card, no matter how powerful it is.
