I am purchasing a very reduced Dell Latitude e6520 from a friend and was wondering what kinds of games I could play on it and what resolutions. I'm not buying it for gaming purposes, but I am curious. The specs are as follows:

Intel® Core™ i7-2720QM (2.20GHz, 6M cache) with Turbo BoostTechnology 2.0
nVidia® NVS™ 4200M 512MB DDR3 Discrete Graphics for Quad Core

upon further research, the CPU requires this graphic card.

4.0GB, DDR3-1333MHz SDRAM
500GB 7200rpm Hard Drive

I may upgrade to 8GB memory, depending if I am bogged down, what do you guys think?
