Default Bfg 7600gs Agp

I recently bought the BFG 7600 GS 512 MB AGP. I havn't gotten time to test the card out(just bought it yesterday). Now I'm wondering how some of these games will run on the video card like:

Age of Empires III
F.E.A.R.
Prey

I know the card is middle level in terms for graphics. Also, here are my specs...

ECS K8 755-A2 mother board 8X AGP 2.0
AMD Sempron 64 2600+ socket 754
1 Gig of RAM (Corsair and Kingston 512 each)
BFG 7600 GS 512 MB AGP


Also, do you believe I will be able to play all the games that will be coming out this fall (medium graphics)?

Try it out! I think you'd probably be able to get away with the new games comming out.

Sheesh! That's like having a new car delivered, and then letting it just sit in the driveway!

Well, that's what I'll be doing tonight when I install Age of Empires III. I know I'll be able to run that game on max settings because I was running the game on a Gefore 5200 like 2 weeks ago (running all on low settings of course).

I was just asking you guys because you people know if the card is either good or realllly good.

You will probably be suffering from your processor now... a 2600+ won't play many newer games very welll

Oh, I know. The next thing I'll be upgrading will be to a good old new AMD 64 processor... like a 3300+ core or so along with a 400W PSU.
