From what I understand, the 6150 is not that great of a card.
Look at it this way though, go ahead and load up LOTR Online and see if it works. You don't even need to buy a copy of LOTR Online to do this...you can download the open-beta for free!
If it works, you're good to go and you don't need to spend more money on a card.
If it doesn't work or runs like total crap, go to www.newegg.com or wherever and get a new card.
You can get very nice cards these days for around $89 - $120. (just make sure to ground yourself when you're changing the card out...do this by simply keeping one body part in contact with the metal frame of your PC case at all times or else you might fry the circuits on the card with static...what body part you use is up to you O_o)
Enjoy!

The Nvidia 6800 is much more powerful than 6150LE integrated graphics.
You could also consider newer cards like the 7600GT. The 6800 is pretty old.

u need a new card. You can usually assume that if the card is made by the same company the higher number is better.
