Yes Windows 7 supports Dragon Age:Origins and will run it as good or better than Vista if that's what your asking.

Windows 7 can run it, but your computer has an intergrated graphics card. I don't think things will work out well with that at all.



You really should consider getting a custom built computer rather than those scamming brands.

As mentioned above, Win7 will do just fine.

You may need some more memory, but your main problem is your graphics card.

The HD3200 is an integrated chip (not a dedicated card) that utilizes shared memory, meaning that it uses your system memory instead of its own (because it doesn't have any).  Therefore, when you think that you have a graphics card thats got 512MB of memory and 3 GB of RAM, you only have 2.5 GB of RAM and your card isn't that good.

You could try waiting until the game comes out to see how your computer handles it, and then see if you need to upgrade.

Yeah now that I ran a check on your graphics card I can say that absolutely no way will the card run Dragon Age, your card can only run games from 2005 and older at above 30fps

That computer will never be able to run DA:O. Ether buy it for a console or consider getting a new one.

I would opt for a PC that ships with a dedicated graphics card. Or, if you do purchase that PC, make sure it has a PCI Express port and you can drop in a card that will do the trick. One of the best deals going for the price-conscious gamer is an ATI Radeon HD 4850 or 4870. Unfortunately, some pre-fab PCs that feature integrated graphics have cheap motherboards that do not have the ports you need to upgrade properly.
