Is my rig good enough?

I apologize if I'm posting in the wrong thread...I'm curious if my new PC rig will work well with Maya 8.5 or Maya 2008, specifically the graphic card. I have Maya PLE, but probably can get a hold of the full version.

Intel Core 2 Duo 2.4GHz
250GB SATA Hard Drive
4GB Ram
128MB nVidia GeForce Go 8400

I am pretty positive that the processor, speed, memory is perfect, but I'm a little bit iffy about the graphic card. I'm not a hard core gamer for PCs, (although I'm going into Game Art and Design). I know that if I want to play the games that gamers play (WoW, GOW, Halo, etc etc), it's better to have a better graphic card.

I thought 128mb will be good enough, then I thought to myself, what about 3D modeling stuff. It's too late for me to change it to 258mb, but I wanted some assurance that it is perfectly fine to do modeling, graphic stuff with 128.
