    That is the card. I have it in my Dell Inspiron 1520, sadly. My specs are almost similar. I have that same graphics, 1.8 GHz CPU and only 2 gigs of Ram. I play WoW but the framerate is iffy. I have my settings on medium and in high populated areas I usually range from about 3 FPS to 20 FPS. I only go above 20 on a GOOD day, when nobody is around, and my camera is zoomed in at the sky or ground.

    It's playable but your framerate is choppy. Your framerate may drop to 3~ during boss fights. and Dalaran never gets about 7 FPS. I've done it for 2 years and have two 80s. ( nolife. ) sooo it's doable.
