Default New Graphics card

Im getting a VisionTek 256MB HD 2400 PRO Graphics Card from circuit city (for $50) and i was wondering how well this would work for guild wars (fps, graphics settings,ect).
Please keep in mind i am not asking for your opinions on how crappy/dude you need a 8800 GTX card dont get this :P. my parents are getting me this for christmas and i have a intel (R) 82865G graphic controller (if you have to make fun of somthing make fun of this).

If will perform fine for GW. No worries about that. If it's the only game you intend to play, then that card is more than enough.

as far as GW is concerned, that card will do fine!

GW is a lot harder on the CPU rather than the GPU anyways, so if you get it and dont see any real improvement, a new processor is probably in order~
