It should 'cope' ok but don't expect to run anything too fancy or too high resolution.
For example I only have a 8800GT, it plays most games in a decent enough resolution to look good on a 46" LED TV but nothing special... I mostly play games on my Xbox or PS3 anyway...
By that are you implying that it will struggle on say SKyrim, BF3 etc? if so what should i be looking at improving?
Specific games vary but I would imagine for BF3 you would want a higher spec graphics card to play at 'decent' levels of detail
It would certainly play both those games but you may have to compromise a bit that's all...
On another note I have finally joined the SSD brigade, only a 120gb one which was £100, just loaded Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit onto it and it boots up in about 18 seconds
Will obviously slow down the more I install but I am seriously impressed so far...
