That is a terrible card; though I will admit very cheap. It would prevent you playing anything more recent than TF2 well, and even TF2 might not have high settings.

It would play the games you want, but I'm not happy with recommending it.

 

Could you recommend a different card? Or type of card?

One word: budget, as in how much do you have to spend.

That will give you the neighborhood to look in, whether it's up to $50 US, $50-100, etc.

Since it's the holidays, then you can start looking for the best available deals since what is typically the best deal in general, may not be the best deal on a given day once you see what's on sale.

For under $50, HD4650 gets Tom's Hardware November pick.

My budget is £50 ($80) and I was told that I would need a 'slim' or smaller graphics card for my pc. Whatever that means..

"slim" means single slot card.

For $80, HD5670.
