Is it a good idea to wait or install now?
« on: May 01, 2014, 02:18:08 AM »
I finally got myself a my own desktop.  I've looked on a few sites, and it says I can play Sims 3 with it, at lowest settings (Which is not a problem for me really).  But I'm wondering if it would be a better idea to get a new graphics card first and maybe some more memory.  My games are currently on another PC, and aren't going any where anytime soon.

Here's the specs.
AMD A6 3620 Quad core
Radeon HD 6530D
6GB Memory
1 TB Harddrive

I figured that you guys here would be able to help me more than those sites.  I just want to know should I chance it as is, or wait till I at least get more memory or graphics card.

Thanks for any help you guys can give.

Hi Unicornfan,

I would personally say wait until you've got the money to get at least a new video card. But it's really personal preference as to wait or not to wait.

If you've gotta have your Simmies now!! Then go ahead and install. If you can wait to get the video card and then install, then do that.

Hope this helps, :)

I installed base, generations, and pets.  It does seem fine.  I'm trying not to play it too much.  I can play it on the other computer if I really want to play for a long time.
