Hi, I just need to know if this integrated graphics card will be able to play The Sims 3? It's the only game I want to be able to play so I don't see the point in getting a separate graphics card.

If not, are there any other integrated graphics card that will do the job?

Yes, it will, but the image quality (or lack thereof) will hurt your eyes: you can only play it at the lowest settings.

As ol' George Clinton over there said, it will play it, but don't hope for a great experience...

well, is this a desktop or laptop, desktop wise i would think using AMD's 785G chipset (has a HD4200 built in) will work decent, mcuch better than intel's IGP
