That 9800gt green edition should satiate your gaming needs for at least 2 years.
Yes, that card should be good enough.

That card would be good as well. But you are overpaying for it. If you can get an exchange for that one, you are sure you can get a refund. The card that I linked you to was the same price as the 9500 after rebate.
If the person can get you a gift receipt (which I am sure they can) then you can get a refund. If you CAN'T get a refund, then you will end up spending $30 more for nothing when you could have invested in something like an aftermarket cooler. (So you can OC your CPU.)

I think everyone just wants to see you get the best GPU for your money. If you can't make a case to the person buying you the card without insulting them then look into an aftermarket cooler maybe. Something that will allow some OCing and is transferable to other cards later on. If you have never OCed google is your friend and be very careful (I cooked a 3 month old 4850 with a volt mod once)
. Best I've ever done OCing a GPU was about 6 FPS extra so.....

You can run it on native, but probably not anything higher than that without slowdowns. Even for me on my system, if I use any resolution higher than 1000x1000, my fps will drop.
As for this card holding you off? Well that depends on what type of games you are playing. If you play low to mid range level games, then maybe. But games like Crysis, etc.....definitely not.
