Is the difference between the Geforce GT540 and GT525 big/noticeably big?

I read a leaflet from Dell the otherday advertising a good laptop with a low price. Everything about it is good or decent. i7 and 4GB memory come to mind however the graphics card is the only thing that seems to be a bit lackluster from comments and reviews.

So is the difference big? The laptop I want to buy has the GT525 but other, more expensive ones have GT540. I hope it isn't big as this is a pretty damn good bargain.

Thanks in advance!

Note that the most graphics-heavy game I'll be playing is Stacraft 2. Also, I'm pretty clueless when it comes to the more tech-specific parts of computers.

The difference is minimal, I found some benchmarks that include SC2:

Either way, you should be able to play it fine.

If the 525 is such a good deal, then it's probably worth it. If worst comes to worst,you could always turn the settings down. But it should work.
