New Generation Video Board For My Old Dell Inspiron 530

Hi to allI own a perfectly working Dell Inspiron 530 with a Celeron Processor and a 300watt power supply and 8Gb DDR2 RAM (I guess).I need to change the video board because I want a HDMI port on it (as I want to use a KVM switch just to use 2 PCs with 1 monitor).It looks like a 'HDMI to VGA' adaptor won't work nor a 'HDMI to DVI' one. (Already tried).I don't do gaming so I don't need a poeerful video board...Only, as I own a LG monitor supporting FreeSync by AMD, I prefer you can suggest an AMD video board.Could you give me some good advice?Fab
