    I want to buy a new laptop, but need some help

    Hello guys!!
    I need some help, please
    I want to buy a new laptop, but dont now if the System Requirements for playing the Sims 3 that I saw are good.
    Could someone help me please:

    The laptop that I want to buy have:
    - Intel Core 2 Due T9559, 2.66 GHz processor (FSB 1066MHZ)
    - ATI Mobility Radeon HD4650 1GB GDDR3

    Did you want to post up the rest like RAM and how much hard disk space?

    Sorry. i Only put the others two, because I can´t change that on a laptop.

    Here are the others:
    RAM: 2 gb - I think.
    Disc space: 320 GB

    The reason why Steve might say okay is because you may very well be limiting yourself in the long term for expansion pack gameplay. Consider bumping up the memory a lot more in order to use the laptop longer :)

    No I meant that it should be more than Ok to play with.
    Depending on the operating system though it may not recognize all the ram you'd have if you installed more.
    32 bit operating systems see a total of 3.25 -3.50 GB's of ram and 64 bit operating systems don't have this limitation.
    You should have no problems with this laptop but eventually you may want to purchase an external hard drive to keep anything you don't need immediately like pictures, music, so forth.
    Just don't try installing any games on an external drive as the communication speed between the two is so low that your games will more than likely lag.
