    your setting high expectations on that card, but it might pull it off at mid settings. dunno wtf is up with my ati radeon 9500, running cs:s at like 15 fps but my brother is pulling like 30fps with a gfx card worse then mine

    That can play any of those games, but not on high. Probly medium ok.

    How much is the max u can pay for gfx card? I can tell you best for 150, 200, 250, 300 etc..

    This is a steal for 164.
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16814102505

    From experiance, I can play all but FEAR on max settings (never tried farcry thats it) and I only have a connect3d radeon x800gto. I can play Fear on all High settings, but there is one level up for Max. You probly can get max but there still may be framerate probs here and there...

    to summarize that. you'll be fine with that card.
