I'm going to give away an old AMD 7770 card. Is the card still capable of playing new games at 800x600 or 1024x768 on medium details atleast. I think the person to whom I'm giving the card has a Core 2 Duo E7500 (2.93 Ghz) with around 4 gb RAM or something. I'm not too sure about this.

I have one of those in my main desktop still :p It works fine for most games, I tend to run a lot of them at 1600x900 or 1376x768 if it's a really demanding game. Main problem I have is low VRAM, I get a lot of texture pop-in on Rome II because it can't hold all of them on the card.

most games should work with lowered settings, but that Core 2 Duo is also going to be a problem for most current games.

It's going to be fine for basic gaming, actually a good match to the C2D.
