Is this a good graphics card?

Hey, im looking to buy my own computer because i just want my own one and my graphics card on this computer is **** (and i cant upgrade it). So i went to Harvey Norman and found the INTEL CORE I3. It was $1170 (including the screen, mouse, keyboard and hard-drive). On the sign it said it had these functions:


- 1 GB Graphics


- ATI Radeon HD 4350


- 3.06ghz


- 4GB DDR3


- 1033MHz


- Windows 7 Home premium


So, now my questions.


1. Is this a good deal? Or am i getting ripped of and try somewhere else? (I live in western Australia)





2. How would these graphics run on World of Warcraft? (on ULTRA and LOW video settings)? Like what would be the average FPS in stormwind, raid etc.





3. How would these graphics run on Garry's Mod/CS:S? Like what would be the average FPS?





4. How would these graphics run on Minecraft?





5. How would these graphics run on Runescape HD? (I dont play it, but im just wandering).





6. This is a non relevant question about steam so if you dont know, dont bother to answer 6.


If i where to buy a new computer, get steam, and logged into my account i have now on it. Would i have to buy my games again?





7. How would this run on Dragon age origins, fallout new vegas and sims 3?





Thanks.|||No. That entire system is not worth it. It has a low end dual core processor and the HD 4350 is an entry level card that is better suited for use in an HTPC system for video playback and is definitely not a gaming card.





A better choice would be this for $1099-
