is this good for gaming?

For todays gaming requirements, I would not go for a card this economically priced. I don't game but my son does and I build his computers with much more capability. I use this card for watching internet videos. Works great for that but it won't handle frame rate, string processing, or memory requirements for gaming.

Does this come with a low profile bracket?

Not that I remember. What you see is what you get.

about how much power does this gpu need? Ive got about 80 watts left in my pc build would this be enough?

I would check the Asus website for that info.
