GT520 should be available at around the same price, it's performance is roughly equal to a 8600GT.. which shd enable you to play slightly oldgames at low settings (like oblivion, AC1, AC2 and even ACB, CoD4,5,6 etc)

Out of those two, HD 5450 is definitely better
I doubt PSU will cause any problems (as long as its not a local one) with such a low end GPU..
If you can, why dont you upgrade your CPU and MOBO.. sell your old ones and add some money, and buy G645+H61M mobo ( total ~6.5k)
the HD 2000 in the CPU is almost equal in performance to the above mentioned GPUs and you will get a lot more CPU performance anyway

Or better yet, just save up some cash and buy a bit later.. (Going through Same situation myself :D)

I dont think anyone would pay 2k for a 9400gt.
If thats the case, I wonder what my 9600gt would sell for. :-?

Better save upd and get HD 5570 1GB DDR3 for ~3.2k.
Its the cheapest card that should be considered for gaming these days. Anything below it wont help you much in any latest and upcoming games.

DirectX11 in games get enabled only when you reach the Ultra settings level (for almost all games).. Do you think a 2k GPU can run games at ultra ?
Except LOTRO (Lord of the Rings Online), which has very low requirements but still uses Dx11 in some parts, I dont think you can use DX11 in any other game with that GPU..

both are out dated cards.
new 5470 is available for rs 1850
I don't think anybody will give you rs 2000 for geforce 9400gt (best of luck for it)

Now for better games atleast go for amd 5570
You have to invest money for better game
You can also try for second hand amd graphic cards at quickr.com

From 9400GT to any of those cards can't be considered as an upgrade..

Minimum choice should be HD5670 or HD6650 or HD6670.
