its a bit towards the lowend, but it will play most newish games (say FEAR, HL2, CSS, BF2, MS flight sim 2004, age of empires III, etc) on medium as long as you dont use a really high screen resolution.

When they shrink the parts and have then use less power you lose performance. And you should be able to play crysis at least on low(depends how well they optimize it which you could play it on higher settings)and play halo 2 ok. but gears idk.

Well, your CPU is decent, your ram is fine, it's the GPU that's holding you back. If they optimize crysis well, then you should be able to play it on low.

Example: Stalker, horribly optimized. I'm talking need best crap in your computer for it to even be playable.

Other games are made to work with the drivers of ATI and NVIDIA and work well with them

This is off topic but "Spierdalaj", I see you have the Lexa Case...What do you think of it cause i was looking at getting that case or the NZXT Zero Case.
