HELP! Dell Studio XPS 1640 run The Sims 3?!!?

I asked about Dell Studio XPS 1645 but I found Dell Studio XPS 1640 cheaper. The seller says its a:

Intel Core 2 Duo Processor P8600 (2.40GHz/ 1066 FSB/ 3MB Cache)
Memory 4GB (2 X 2GB) Dual Channel 1067MHz DDR3 SDRAM
LCD Panel 16 " 1080p Full HD WUXGA (1920x1080) Anti-Glare RGBLED Display with 2.0MP webcam
Keyboard Dell Backlit Keyboard with Touchpad
Video Card 512MB ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3670
Hard Drive 320GB 7200RPM SATA Hard Drive
Operating System Genuine Windows Vista Home Premium 64 bit SP1 Edition

Can it run The Sims 3? Please answer. Thanks

Yes, you will be able to run the Sims 3. They did a very good job of optimizing the game to run a large variety of hardware. The ATI 3670 will will run the game, however you may need to lower the resolution from (1920x1080) to something lower to have acceptable performance. Running the game at a decreased resolution will make the screen look slightly 'fuzzy' or 'blurry'.

I hope you are not paying too much for the laptop. I would consider $450 to be a fair price because of the small hard drive and Vista OS. Both indicate it is relatively old, but was top of the line when purchased.
