Yes the problem is your gpu, the geforce 8400 gs has a really low performance.

What´s your budget??

good gpus:

ATI 5670 - > 80 $

ATI 5770 -> 100 $

it should run the game but just don't expect it will eat the game for breakfast

Maybe dinner with some wine . ( ) ) In other words it won't max out at 1080p.

This 5850 would be the best price/performance buy. Just 139 $...
