I have one in my Home Cinema PC...it doesn't really deliver graphics capable of playing any of the latest games but for general use and the occasional game of Sims it will be fine....
...I would recommend you read a couple of reviews of this type of card online and then decide if you will be better served by a more powerful card such as a 6600 or 7600.
Try these sites....

To be honest it's a low end card and will drive a display fine, but for gaming it's worthless and shader model 3.0 on cards that slow is a gimmick ..so i wouldnt use that as a buying point ,because the card is much too slow to use any shader model 3.0 effects.

Better than a 9250 Radeon but still not cutting edge by any standards. Quite capable of light gaming duties (no 1600x1200 32 bit colour pranks here!) and all other normal PC duties.
Games a few years old should play fairly well in medium/high detail depending on your processor.
