Is this a good graphics card for gaming?

Solution
GT 630 would be beaten by slightly modern Intel Integrated graphics. Your GPU resources would probably be eaten up before VRAM would be.

Furthermore that VRAM is sloooow.

"Good for gaming" is a rather vague question. Depends on the games, the resolution, and the graphic quality you require. But on a general level, it was a mainstream, middle-range GPU when it was released. But that was four years ago and it's getting towards the budget side. Now it's somewhere between an RX 460 and an RX 470, probably a little closer to the former, but with worse patch support.
 
My bro owns one, plays battle.net games, heavily modded minecraft with shaders, and some games like Fallout 4. Most other games I didn't mention are open world ones that need more CPU. His resolution is 1650 x 1050 I believe, he can get most settings to high. I'd say his card is somewhere around a GTX 1050ti, but probably with worse software support.

Edit ; I swear this used to say GTX 760
 
Hello... it's in the middle of the Road compared to others available... I've have one @1080P and Dual monitor mode use, for a few years and am ready for a upgrade... But that is typical "upgrade fever"...it's been Rock solid for me.

Be careful of the Specs on the CARD/GPU/Memory... there were some 'OEM" models that had lower hardware specs than a STD (retail) GTX760.

The first three responses (including mine) don't make sense because the original poster changed his question in this thread from a GTX 760 to a GT 630 without saying anything, which is pretty poor form. If you want to make volunteers grumble about providing assistance, a bait-and-switch that makes them look dumb is a good way to go about it.
