Graphics cards for Dell Vostro 200 and Sims 2?

What is a compatible graphics card for my computer (Dell Vostro 200 intel Celeron) and Sims 2.

Graphics cards for Dell Vostro 200 and Sims 2?
The Dell Vostro 200 series seems to be based on the Intel G33 Express chipset, which offers a PCIe x16 slot. So you need to look for a video card with a PCIe interface.





If you just want to play The Sims 2, you don't need much in terms of graphics power at all, since the game is several years old and was developed for video cards from two or three generations ago.





You haven't stated what resolution you want to run at and how much you would like to spend. The link below has a chart of current video cards with their performance. The second link gives some guidance as to what the best cards at certain price points are.

If you give me a price range, I can make a better suggestion as to what card would fit the bill.
