These are the Specs of my PC: https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c03079925
I want to put a MSI GeForce GTX 1650 GAMING X 4G Graphics Card, PCI-E x16, No SLI, 4K HDR in it.
I have researched a lot and used bottleneck calculators and each of them gave different bottleneck percentages. Some say 100% bottleneck and others say 50%.
I have $110, what is best to do?

You computer is circa 2011, and has the old BIOS called Legacy. It can not be upgraded to the newer UEFI v BIOS which any card manufactured 09/2012 and later would be UEFI. So, you can not use it. The last know card to work would be the GTX 660, and that requires a 500W PSU. These are out of your price range.
