This videocard is not supported in MacOS. 

And all other hadware is not worth to attempt. SATA drive is not bad.

May be it worked in Mac OS 10.5 in 32 bit mode, I am not sure.

The card should work as long as its device ID is added to the proper kexts (ATIRadeonX2000.kext, ATI2600Controller.kext). Maybe a proper DSDT injection in addition.

start Windows OS and download the Aida64 Trial verison then extract the dsdt files as described in the video tutorial then upload the extracted files as a zip

 

But it is better to scrap the graphics card and buy a cheaper OSX compatible graphics card 🙄

Let me doubt about the accuracy.

Herve is absolutely right. The only thing that makes sense is either to install Yosemite 10.5.x or  El Capitan 10.11.x, then Mac OSX will detect your graphics card by default without requiring a patched DSDT. In addition, you must use an "amd kernel" for older AMD CPUs. 
Since your CPU has no SSE4.1 instructions, the maximum is "El Capitan 10.11.6". Sierra 10.12.* will not work with your CPU.
