    Would an 128mb 8400 GS be fine for games such as Diablo II, Starcraft, Starcraft II, and Guild Wars?

    I originally wanted a the Inspiron 1420, and im beginning to have second thoughts about the 1520.

    they will play those games easy. high settings, native res, with smooth fps.. not sure about starcraft 2.. but from what ive seen.. you should be fine.

    Absolutely for the current games out. Starcraft II, no clue, since it's not out yet, but Blizzard games are normally very scalable.
