Can I run Sims 3 on this machine?
Would I be able to run Sims 3 on a machine with the following specs:
# AMD Athlon 2650e Processor 800MHz FSB (Operates at 1.6GHz/512KB L2 cache)
# NVIDIA GeForce 6150SE Chipset
# 2 GB DDR2 Memory
# NVIDIA GeForce 6150SE Integrated graphics
# 160 GB SATA II Hard Drive (7200RPM)
# 18x DVD±R/RW SuperMulti Drive featuring Labelflash Technology
# Multi-in-One Digital Media Card Reader
# 56K ITU V.92 ready Fax/Modem (RJ-11 port)
# 9 - USB 2.0 Ports (5 Front, 4 Rear)
# Microsoft Windows Vista Home Basic edition with Service Pack 1
I can not test the system on systemrequirementslab.com because I am not using the system yet. I am considering purchasing it and want to know if it will support the game.

You should be fine. Two gigs of ram is the minimum requirement for the Sims 3. Your machine should play it, but bear in mind that it is a resource hog.

You can run it.
The catch with this game is that it requires pixel shader 2.0 minimum.
According to Nvidia, the 6150SE chipset for onboard graphics supports pixel shader 3.0.

Go to this site from your the computer you want to run it on:
http://cyri.systemrequirementslab.com/srtest/
and select The Sims 3 from the list (It was in the 't's, I know that is retarted). The website will analyze your computer and tell you if you meet the minimum requirements. I am guessing your video card will fail.
