I'd advise you buy a new graphics card as your integrated one won't actually be able to start the game. From what I read up on it.
In the price range of $200-250 I'd advise for the GeForce 560Ti or Radeon HD 6970. Both should run the game on ultra. Additionally you can check for higher price cards if you're willing to spend all $400 on it.
Thanks for checking it out I've considered up to 400, what would your thoughts be on that? Also, could you be more specific....such as should I look for an ATI, Saphire, adi w/e...lots of stuff comes up and I really don't know much about it all.
Has I'm assuming more detailed info that would help in picking something specific. Again, thanks for any and all help. Has power supply, case size etc etc
Diablo-Fiend is right. I want to add that with a 250 watt PSU, space won't be an issue because it can't power a physically large card.
I recommend a Radeon 7750. It's slot-powered (meaining 75 watts max), so your PSU should be able to handle it, and it's new enough that should you build yourself a new computer, you can re-use this card. They sell for $110-$120, currently. At your monitor's 1280x1024 resolution, it can probably max out all the game's details.

(hint: the Radeon is better)
All else seems fine.
Ha. Bagstone.
I had looked at this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150549 but I've been told it's a massive card....need something smaller
