This is a good card at a decent price.
As far as games and settings go, you will be able to play all games at high settings (might need to stay away from 4xAA or higher though).
Typically 1024x768 @ high is nice.
Only game that stresses is FarCry - but this is due to its RAM demand. To play this game @ high you need at least 1GB of RAM.
Hope this helps.
