Are these cards brand new? These are some pretty old cards. Except for the 9500GT

Between those 2x7900GS in SLI is the best performer.

They may be "brand new" because the box has not been opened, but they have been sitting on a shelf for about 4 years somewhere.

Not very well. But that would depend on the rest of the system.. If it is as old as the GPU's (or older) he may not be able to play them at all.
