You get quite strange numbers from Stalker. You need to get a high average as the low points are quite distracting during play. The MSI card easily gives us 1280x800, 2xAA, 8xAF, and isn't far off doing 4xAA.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R., while a newer game, does have a tendency to look a little ugly in places especially at lower settings, but it handles different resolutions well. The MSI card lets us play at 1280x800 and offers a nice image quality as well.
