Well there is no GPU listed there, so I assume your laptop doesn't have one, which means your laptop will not run any games at decent settings.

Any help dude bit of a noob with specs. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1363079542.025755.jpg

It only has a basic integrated graphics card. You won't be able to play games on that laptop unfortunately.

Ok then that's great it was for the sims mainly but even that can be demanding. Thanks for the help!

The i3 has a HD 3000 GPU if I am not mistaken, while not the fastest thing in the world, should easily be able to play some older games and more simple games like Minecraft, etc. without a problem.

Yup, my old laptop had an i5 and a HD 3000 GPU if I remember correctly and it couldn't run too much. I mainly only played Minecraft on it, however I did get Guild Wars 2 running on it barely with everything turned down to the lowest, but even then the performance wasn't very good.

My laptop is a few years old with a shitty graphics card but manages The Sims 2 on max settings with about 30-40FPS, dunno about The Sims 3 but the specs above are a tad better than my laptop so it should be fine to run The Sims. I've played Morrowind, Half Life 1/2, and a bunch of other late 90s/early-mid 2000s games on it and they run fine on medium-max settings too, tried Fallout 3 and it runs at about 15FPS though lol

Hmm great reply. Think I should buy or get built a quality rig.

Depends on your budget, if all you want to play is The Sims then that laptop should be fine, if you're planning on playing any massive open world RPGs then yeah you'll need a rig or a very high end laptop.

You think it would handle sim city? Not sure how demanding that is.
