You can get a "trial" code from someone that has bought the game that will enable you to play for 7 hours over a 14 day peroid. That would allow you to test how well it runs. Also you could probably just download and install the client and the installer might tell you if your system isn't up to the task. Although if you have a on board type card you really should get a real video card. The box says minimum you should have a 128MB PCIe Geforce 6600GT or Radeon 9800 PRO.
