    Should not have a problem. I run Sims 3 on a lesser laptop, and it works pretty well!

    particular. The specs of that workstation are very almost the right same as my Toshiba satellite tv for pc 505D. yet I do propose to no longer get a Dell because of the fact they are much less solid. i'd fantastically propose the workstation I even have, it is going to likely be waiting to play Sim 3, GTA, Portal a million & 2, all call of duty video games aside from Black ops, Command and triumph over sequence, and an outstanding kind of many greater video games.

    Everything is OK except for what matters the most:

    Intel HD Graphics 3000 is Integrated graphics, running from your processor and system memory. That is not good.

    You want dedicated graphics (card) of at least 512MB or 1GB - should say GeForce or Radeon on graphics.

    Here is a very good laptop for $600.00:

    I'd say that it's more than enough. Sims 3 is not as demanding as other games, so you should have no problem running the game.
