So i know the sysreqs for The Old Republic and ive checked them on systemrequirementslab. Supposedly my graphics card isnt good enough to play it but somehow it meets if not exceeds all of the features under the Video Card section on systemrequirementslab. Here's what it said:

Required You Have
Video RAM 256 MB 825.2 MB
Pixel Shader version 3.0 3.0
Vertex Shader version 3.0 3.0

Do you think my computer will be able to run SWTOR even though i only have a NVIDIA GeForce 6150SE?

system requirments lab is stupid, and i'm not kidding But you will be able to run the game at pretty good settings. Your videocard has an old chipset but it's an old game too. so i'm taling about kotor the old game

If you're talkinga about the new game that's coming out,no you won't be able to run that game at all

The 6150SE is an integrated graphics chip, not a video card, and it's an ancient one at that. It's completely unfit for gaming. Also, for the record, your computer is misreporting the amount of VRAM you have. In reality you have no VRAM whatsoever. Instead, the 6150SE leeches off of your system RAM, which is much lower performance than VRAM. Your only solutino is to either install a real video card in the system or buy a new computer. You may very well have to do the latter since if you have a 6150SE it's likely you bought that computer sometime between 2004 and 2006.
