I am shopping for a computer and I came along one that I think will work. But I need some info before I make a decision. So here are some main important requirements for the Sims 3:
(processor)2.4 GHz P4 processor or equivalent. (Graphics card or video) 128 mb video card w/support for pixel shadder 2.0
Now, the pc that I think will be fine has:
(processor) AMD Athlon (TM) X2 Dual-Core Processor for Notebook PCs QL-62 (2.0 GHz) (Graphics card) 512MB ATI Raedon (TM)HD3650 Graphics
The computer I want to get is HP Dv5z series. I am able to customize this series from the website. Is this graphics card a stand alone one? Any suggestion will be greatly appericated.
