It seems to have an OK processor, and according to notebookcheck, the grapchics card should run crysis at low detail.
I'd say it should also be able to run the SC2 beta at low detail even though the minimum official requirements for that is a 2.5 GHz CPU.
If it has the features that you want and has a good price, I'd say it's fairly balanced. Although a little lacking in power.
Also, it didn't say if the graphics memory is shared or not wich is a concern. Dedicated graphics memory is always something worth looking for.
