    Depends on the CPU, can't find the extreme 535.
    The GPU, while poor, should be able to make it half-high, half-ultra at 1920x1080, probably full ultra except shadows in 1680x1050.
    It all depends on the CPU though.

    That CPU is awful. I don't recommend it, it's a Phenom "one".

    I have the GTX 550TI SC from Evga. It is a decent card, if you have an older card to begin with. For a minute I was using a 710 phenom II. In 25 man raids, I was pulling around 20-40 fps during fights. After I upgraded my CPU to a 970, my fps jumped up to 40-60FPS. That was at ultra settings. The card itself can handle shadows very well.

    If you can pick it up at a decent price, I wouldnt pass it up. Though it is weaker than my HD 5830.
