What is a good gaming computer or computer for playing The Sims 2 or 3?

Question by pinkladybug3: What is a good gaming computer or computer for playing The Sims 2 or 3?
I like to play the computer game The Sims 2 (eventually would like to get The SIms 3) and I need a recommendation on a computer that will run it good.

I don't know much about computers as far as hard drive and such, so I need to know what a good computer, RAM, hard drive and such would work good to run The Sims 2.

If you have additional questions just ask me! Thanks so much!!

What is a good graphics card for your computer if all you want is for your Sims game to run faster?

by adam coster

Question by pikarica2003: What is a good graphics card for your computer if all you want is for your Sims game to run faster?
My computer is a bit outdated, this I already know. But I really don't think I'm in desperate need of another one. I just need it to run my Sims 2 game faster (seeing as that's the most advanced thing I do on my computer). So what would be a good graphics card to install in my computer to help it run at a high resolution and not take 15 minutes to load one house?

Answer by Rioter
To make The Sims run faster, all you need is RAM . You don't need a graphics card.

Can I play Sims 3 with high settings on a Radeon HD 4830 with 512 MB? How do you install a video card?

Question by lovebird25: Can I play Sims 3 with high settings on a Radeon HD 4830 with 512 MB? How do you install a video card?
What about a HD 4850?
or HD 4770?
or NVidia GeForce GTS 250?

How do I install a video card that I buy? I am buying a new computer from dell with either a Core 2 Duo or Dual Core. Does installation depend on the motherboard? Please help, I don't understand how to build it :P

Best answer:

Answer by evaohell
Building a PC and buying from Dell are two different things.

If you buy from Dell, it will come to you already built. I'd personally get the GTS 250 over the ATI HD cards..

And yes, the video card is dependant one what motherboard you have...since different motherboards have different video card slots..Although any new motherboard for a core2duo will have a PCI-E slot that will fit any PCI-E video card. If you plan to use 2 or more video cards you need to buy a motherboard that supports either nvidia's SLI or ATI's Crossfire.

How many different reputations are there on the sims 3?

what is the best answer to

Question by Savanna: How many different reputations are there on the sims 3?
How many are there, what are they, and how do you get them?

Best answer:

Answer by Chante`
As far as I know there are only romantic ones:

Romantic Reputations

■Neighbors and Sims around the community will take notice of any public displays of affection!
■With The Sims 3 Generations, Sims around the neighborhood will take notice of any dates, romantic socials, or displays of affection performed in a public setting.
■Depending on a variety of different factors like how many times your Sim has been seen with this Sim, how many times your Sim has been seen with other Sims, or even if your Sim has been caught cheating before, your Sim will develop a Romantic Reputation that will affect the future of their love life.
■Sims who are seen being Romantic with only a single partner will likely be given the “Faithful” reputation or even the “Eternally Faithfull” reputation for those in a long term monogamous relationship.
■Sims who have been witnessed being romantic with many different Sims simultaneously, or perhaps have even been caught cheating before, may develop the “Cheater” or “Player” reputations depending on the extent of their transgressions. Finding true love in the future will not be easy!
■Sims who have been in many relationships throughout their lives could develop the “Casanova” or “Don Juan” reputations. WooHoo with one of these Sims will leave you with the much sought after “Incredible Time!” moodlet.
■You can use the brand new Scrapbook to see your Sim’s romantic stats like their reputation, how many romances they’ve had, or even the number of times they’ve cheated on other Sims!
■Sims also have several brand new Romantic interactions that allow them to declare their love for another Sim, accuse a Sim of cheating on them, or even tell a friend that their romantic partner has been cheating on them!
■Reputations are hard earned, so if your Sim has a reputation he or she likes, take care not to do anything to mess it up!
