Haha yeah, "AMD RS780" got me confused for a moment since there are AMD RX480, 580, etc GPUs... The ATI (before the rebranding in 2010) RS780 from 2008 is indeed a bit out of date
Are you sure that's the discrete GPU though? RS780 seems to be an onboard GPU. Could it be that the dGPU is not detected because of a missing driver or something? In doubt check inside the case
For hashcat you'll most likely need a new PC as I am not sure a new GPU would work very well with a 2008 CPU and PCIe 2.0 motherboard.
32GB of RAM is a very nice amount, so don't throw away your PC: you could use it for something else like a NAS or maybe a dedicated streaming PC. Don't make the mistake of trying to use these 32GB in a new PC: it's DDR3 while new PCs use DDR4.
