I am not planning on playing any intensive games and this card is even over kill for what I need. I want to play games like rome total war, halo 1, wow, ext. The most graphic hungry game I would try to run would be halo 2. I think I could do it but I would like a second opinion if anyone has one. I am not going to ever be playing any intensive games on the system because I will be getting a new pc at the end of school but I just figured this could be a good option to help tide me over.
