Hi,

This is a laptop section but it makes no difference..:smileyhappy:

Because it's a desktop you may use almost any graphics card with the right interface. The motherboard has a single PCI Express x16 slot so you need a PCIE x16 graphics card..

You should consider how much money you want or can spend before you buy. I prefer nVidia graphics cards and the motherboard's chipset is also nVidia so nVidia graphics card will be the best option. 1GB graphics memory should be enough to play Sims 3 and some other games...

This one should work:

It's a pcie 2.0 x16 vga but it will work as a pcie x16 vga (same speed). It's also supported by Sims 3:
