Is this laptop capable of running Sims 3 with Pets, University Life, Generations and around 25-30MBs of mods and cc?

Simmerforlife · Dec 28, 2016

Hi I was just wondering this is laptop would be capable of running Sims 3 base game, Pets, University Life, Generations, and 25-30MBs of mods and custom content all at once. I really want a laptop that can do this for under $400. Thanks! http://www.target.com/p/acer-aspire-e-15-6-hd-intel-core-i3-6gb-ddr3l-1tb-hdd-windows-10-home-e5-573-378g-black-aspir/-/A-51230027?ref=tgt_adv_XS000000&AFID=google_pla_df&CPNG=PLA_Electronics+Shopping&adgroup=SC_Electronics_Top%20Performers&LID=700000001170770pgs&network=g&device=t&location=1023678&gclid=Cj0KEQiAv4jDBRCC1IvzqqDnkYYBEiQA89utom_2Y6eBtqRiQ9cRejmUmg5p18mMQsrF0IY-I3m3M6UaAi8m8P8HAQ&gclsrc=aw.ds

maybe on low, as it only has integrated intel graphics.

The Acer Aspire E 15 E5-575-33BM is a better deal. Same $350 price, but it has a 7th generation Core i3-7100u CPU with an integrated Intel HD 620 graphics core that is a bit more powerful. It also has a 1080p screen and backlit keyboard.

https://www.amazon.com/Acer-Aspire-i3-7100U-Windows-E5-575-33BM/dp/B01K1IO3QW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1482959666&sr=8-1&keywords=i3-7100u

The Intel HD 620 is slightly less powerful than a nVidia 920m, but it is more powerful than the Intel HD 5500 in the 5th generation Core i3-5005u. The Sims 3 should be playable since I saw someone play the game (not exactly sure what expansions were installed) on a laptop with a 4th generation Core i5-4200u and Intel HD 4400 @ 1600x900 resolution. Intel HD .

The Sims 3 is a rather old game by now and it is not as demanding as the newer Sims 4 which you can see benchmarks in the following link for the Intel HD graphic cores that I mentioned. I would say the Intel HD 620 should be able to handle the Sims 3 at 1080p using at least medium graphic settings.

that should work great, as the AMD APU has a better built-in GPU

jaguarskx · Dec 31, 2016

AMD APUs do not necessarily have better integrated graphic cores compared to Intel. It depends specifically on the graphics core itself.

The A10-9600p has a Radeon R5 (Carrizo) graphics core. There are currently no benchmarks for it. However, based on it's specs, the Radeon R5 (Carrizo) is ranked below the Intel HD 5500 in a 5th generation Intel Core series CPU.
