Hi and welcome!

What games are you thinking of in particular?

 

[PCS]

This is a well balanced specification for your budget

 

[bigsi846]

It would mainly be used for Football Manager and some MMORPG's. Like WoW and Star Wars Galaxies. Would this spec be sufficient?

For those games, more than sufficient.

Yeah you should be fine with this specification. My Laptop is around 2 - 3 years old now and I've used it in the past for FM & WoW so you'll have no problems with this specification.
