Hello,

My sister bought Sims 2, and needs a new video card. Her computer is the slowest allowable to play Sims 2, P3 800Mhz, 384MB RAM, running W2K. I was thinking of getting her a Radeon 9000 for $30. Someone else is selling a Radeon 9250 for $55. Will her system see any big difference with the 9250? Will she be able to play the game satisfactorily withe the 9000, or should I get an even better card? My goal is to stay under $55 (shipping included).

Thanks for any advice.

You sister needs a much better CPU for Sims 2. Personally I've found Sims 2 playable on my Athlon XP 2400+ with 512 MB RAM and Radeon 9000 (non-Pro).
