I've never played those games on my computer before, so I couldn't say, and I wouldn't want to guess or tell you anything about how well it would work with those games. But it seemed to work alright with a PCSX2 emulator. Thats a whole different category though.
If you don't want that graphics card you can always upgrade to a better one.
If you want a true gaming experience I would highly recommend ATI Radeon HD 6870 as your graphics card. It's around $250 USD, but it was worth it for me. It will truly blow your mind away...

Yeah, the specs look good on the CPU for the computer, and the processor details look fairly decent for gaming. It should be sufficient for that type of use. You don't need the best of everything to have a good gaming experience, and that would be a good start in my opinion.

Yeah 1GB of memory is fairly good for smooth gaming. Just make sure you meet the computer requirements for that graphics card and you're good. It also supports OpenGL and Pixel Shader 4.1 which is good.

I'm going to say that its not that good of a card.. and you most likely wont be able to play the hardcore games that you might want. I've noticed a lot of good deals on computers but they have a built in graphics card, and it bottlenecks your gaming experience. You would be better off grabbing a decent card if your goal is to play games.

Intel and Radeon seem to have some good cards for gaming. NVIDEA usually isn't idea for gaming, but some are decent to play with. With my purposes, I don't need a powerful graphics card, but i've also never played World of Warcraft or anything on my computer.
