If you can add a video card to that, will be a LOT better, even though the CPU is a bit slow to run games well.
Something like an R7 240, nVidia GT 630, Radoen 7750 (need all low profile cards for that system with low power use). Radeon HD 5570 would be a cheap choice also.

You can find many of the older cards used, but make sure you get them locally so you can see them run first as many people try to get rid of cards that are faulty on ebay and craigslist.

A 1.8 gig dual core with onboard video you will be stuck on low settings and with pretty jerky performance.

Maybe spend $100 on a used tower with a 2.6 gig + Core 2 Duo CPU and another 30-40 on a video card for that. Will be much better.
