The 1.3 GHz Pentium M processor is *slightly* below the equivalent to the 2 GHz Pentium 4 processor. The CPU isn't the only thing to worry about.
The video card (GPU) ultimately determines if you can run Sims 3. Pentium M laptops of the era come with the integrated Intel GMA900 or GMA950 or dedicated GeForce & Radeon GPUs whose memory ranged less than 128 MB. Although they could run Sims 2 just fine, they wouldn't run Sims 3 very well as it's below the system requirements.
