I was under the impression that virtual machines don't use your GPU. You have to rely completely on integrated graphics on your CPU. I may be wrong though and i'm too lazy to look it up.

VirtualBox and VMWare use virtualized graphics cards, yes. You won't see your actual card listed at all, just whatever generic virtual card+drivers the VM uses.

That said, I couldn't get D3 running on VBox because of lack of GPU support (they don't have a set of guest tools that help like VMWare does edit; they have guest tools but D3D support is limited, I mean).

If you install the Guest Additions and check the experimental D3D support box you *might* be able to get to the character profile screen and Auction House, but it'll be flaky at best.
