Okay...so I've been going crazy waiting for The Sims 3 to come out, but I'm terrified now because I don't know if my computer will run it. I did a check at canyourunit.com and it said my processor is too slow.
For The Sims 3, on XP you need a 2.0 GHz processor but with Vista you need a 2.4 GHz processor. I have Vista and 2.0 GHz.
I have NO idea what this means. Can I still play the game and it will just be slow? I need some help...and fast!The Sims 3 - System Requirements (Processor)?
Don't worry, your processor is way over minimum system requirements.
People, you can't compare 2.4 GHz Pentium 4 (the minimum) with a 2.0 GHz T5750.
T5750 is much better.
whats your case? I would buy a decent graphic card so your cpu does not have to offer total support for all your gaming needs. a central processing unit and graphic processing unit share responsibilities so it may even out the ball game.
but then on a laptop it would not be worth it with 667MHZ Front side bus and 2MB L2 Cache you might have to buy a decent desktop sims 3 100% chance will bottle neck your laptop even if found a card you would have to pay someone to install it will just cost your hundreds of dollars and still might not work.The Sims 3 - System Requirements (Processor)?
yeah, you should be able to run it, i've played games on a computer with a 1.73GHz that required 2.0GHz and above.
so yeah youre good
with Vista you need a 2.4 GHz processor. I have Vista and 2.0 GHz.
That is your answer! No you cannot because your processor is too slow!The Sims 3 - System Requirements (Processor)?

Sims 3 system requirements for inspiron 1526?
I'm thinking about getting the Sims 3 for my laptop, but the thing is, I'm not sure if my laptop can handle it ^^"
So, I run windows Vista and my laptop is a Dell inspiron 1526 and on the website it says I need the following in order to run the sims:
* Windows Vista (Service Pack 1)
* 2.4 GHz P4 processor or equivalent
* 1.5 GB RAM
* At least 6.5 GB of hard drive space with at least 1 GB additional space for custom content
* 128 MB Video Card with support for Pixel Shader 2.0
and I have no idea what half of it means or where to find out if I even have it!
So please, help?Sims 3 system requirements for inspiron 1526?
I checked the Dell website for the specs of your computer and the graphics card is not very good for playing games. If the game runs at all it will most likely be very slow and the graphics will be terrible. I recommend holding out on getting the Sims 3 until you get a new computer that can handle it.

Sims 3 system requirements - will it run? Confusion with processor?
I have been looking for similar questions on here and there seems to be a few, so apologies! But I am a bit confused at whether my laptop will run the new game smoothly. I have read the minimum system requirements on websites and I have done the yougamers system check (which turned out to be fine.)
The confusion I have is with the whole minimum requirement being intel p4 2ghz. On my laptop I have intel core 2 duo 2.1 ghz... will this be enough to run the game smoothly or will it be a nuisance since I have vista?
All the other specs of the laptop seem to be good enough to be able to run the game although I think my video card could be better.Sims 3 system requirements - will it run? Confusion with processor?
You're fine in the processor department - your Core 2 Duo 2.1Ghz is much faster than any P4.
The clockspeeds alone aren't useful measurements- even a 1.87Ghz Core 2 Duo easily outperforms a P4 at 3.2Ghz.Sims 3 system requirements - will it run? Confusion with processor?
a Core 2 duo is far more powerful than a P4. It will run great.Sims 3 system requirements - will it run? Confusion with processor?
It will work with your processor, no Vista will not be a nuisance, I switched from XP to Vista, I didn't notice any difference in gaming. Also, it depends on your laptop's video card. IF it's from Intel, don't even bother picking it up until you get dedicated card.
I don't think your CPU would cause a problem but Vista might. Just make sure the game is compatible with Vista. Your video adapter can always be better. It's never ending with them.madden nfl 08 dairy queen locations

Sims 3 system requirements? Ghz?
I'm thinking of buying sims 3 for pc, but I have Intel (R) Core (TM) 2 CPU , 2.13 Ghz. But on the sims 3 website, it says that 2.40 Ghz or equivalent is required. I have 40gb+ of free memory (7GB needed), my video card seems compatible, I've got windows vista service pack 2 (i think this ones okay too, I've researched), and I have 2GB ram (1.5GB required). If I were to install it on my PC (desktop), will it work?
To make it easier, here's the list of required stufff:
2.4 GHz P4 processor or equivalent
1.5 GB RAM
A 128 MB Video Card with support for Pixel Shader 2.0
Microsoft Windows Vista Service Pack 1
At least 7 GB of hard drive space
All answers will be greatly appreciated. Thank You.Sims 3 system requirements? Ghz?
Yes, your PC is compatible with Sims 3
You've stated all your other components meets the requirments and only CPU as a concern.
The requirements suggests you have a 2.4GHz P4 (Single Core) CPU. You have a Core 2 Duo (2 Cores). Even though only 2.13 Ghz, Intel Core 2 Duo series use new technology and 45nm processors which pushes it beyond normal system performances of the time when P4 were mainstream. Thus making it far better than P4.
Sims 3 is not a graphically demanding game (compared to recent release titles) but knowing the exact model of your graphic card can help confirm the final verdict.

Sims 3 - System requirements? Release date?
Hi love the Sims and am excited about Sims3. Seeing as I have to upgrade my laptop anyway I wanted to know what PC (or laptop) to get to really enjoy the new Sims packs.
I found minimum requirements but in my experience that is just the basics to get the game rolling however if you just fulfil the minimum requirements the game still freezes or is very slow to load.
So I want a machine that makes the gaming experience thoroughly enjoyable. Do you have any advice for me on that?
Also is it try that Sims3 will be released in February 2009 in the UK?Sims 3 - System requirements? Release date?
Only a month to go!
The answer to your question lies in the new Argos catalogue and website (a UK shop) on page 1760 item number 16!
Its release date acording to Argos in the UK is 20th Febuary 2009 and in Argos it is priced at 拢34.29. In Game (UK shop)it's around 拢29. Basically order now and pick up on the day.
No details about requirements about. But you will need a good PC and lots of HD!Sims 3 - System requirements? Release date?
I would get a dual core processor at least 2 gb of ram and a decent video card
Tigerdirect.com is a good place to buy computers. You will most likely have to buy the video card separate from computer. Also Desktops are a lot easier to upgrade.Sims 3 - System requirements? Release date?

If my PC meets the Minimal requirements, will it run the sims 3 well?
I just got done checking with the sims 3 system requirements and i meet the requirements EXACTLY, i didnt go under of exceed them. will it still work perfectly?
example: Sims 3 requires 128 MB Video Card with support for Pixel Shader 2.0 and i have exactly 128 MB Video Card with support for Pixel Shader 2.0.If my PC meets the Minimal requirements, will it run the sims 3 well?
It'll work minimally, not perfectly. You might have to run it on reduced graphics settings, but it's the Sims 3, so you're not missing out on terribly much.If my PC meets the Minimal requirements, will it run the sims 3 well?
will work but with little slowings and stuckes.

SIMS 3 System Requirements HELP!!?
Would my computer run Sims 3? This is my computer specifications:
http://support.gateway.com/s/PC/R/1009583/1009583sp2.shtml
Please help!
Thanks!SIMS 3 System Requirements HELP!!?
no, the intel gma 950 wont be able to play the sims 3.
you need to get a new video card. also if you have vista the requirements are 1.5gb minimum so if you only have 1gb installed then you need to get more.
i recommend you just max out your RAM to 2gb: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as鈥?/a>
to do this you will have to take out your old ram
or if you can't spend too much then just get 1 gb: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as鈥?/a>
for the minimum amount of ram, you will still need to take out one of the already installed sticks to put this one in
as for a video card, your pc has a PCI Express x16 slot. i recommend you get a card with 256mb and 128mb, this one is pretty good: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as鈥?/a>
