As Animal said, with some games (NWN for example) you are not missing out on much. For others, which use DX9 you are missing out on a lot of extra effects. And you are also missing out on AA and AF (Anti Aliasing and anisotropic filtering) which add to the games looks. The other big difference is Frame Rate, however anything with a Frame Rate above 30 is "playable"

With some of the new cards you can get massive framerates (200+) on some games, but after you get to a certain point, they dont really matter since the eye cant tell the difference.
