    I'm a casual gamer and I'm wondering if the 383MB NVIDIA GeForce 8400M GS is powerful enough to run the some games I'm hoping to play. The games include Fear, S.T.A.L.K.E.R, Rainbow 6, and especially Hellgate: London when it comes out. I probably will be playing Hellgate nonstop for a while when I get it.

    It'll run those games at low to medium, the 8400GS is essentially powered up x1400/7400 with DX10.

    HG:L doesn't have many details, but I'd assume it'd run fine at low settings.
