    Just wondering how this graphics card is. I want to be able to play Age of Empires 3 on at least medium settings, do you think it will run that smoothly? Thanks.

    Possibly, but the Geforce 6150 is very low-end.

    Depends on how much you have to spend. If you are only going to spend around $800, then the Go6150 is the best you can afford; certainly far better than the integrated Intel GMA950. However, if you can spend closer to $1,000, then you can get yourself a dedicated video card. As posted, with an integrated video card, you may run into some trouble playing the latest games.

    The 6150 is an integrated graphics chip but it is better than the Intel GMA. Its very low end but better than the Intel. It could run AOE3 but it wont run it with high settings, you may have to settle for low instead
