Laptop that runs the Sims 3

nuttynathan · 06-23-2009, 09:17 AM

Hi,
I would like to buy a laptop that can run the Sims 3 on High quality (if possible).
I am on a budget of a max of £749. I can go over a little bit.

I know that it has to have a 2.4 GHz processor P4 (?).
I need a 2.4GHz for some other applications aswell.

If you know of a laptop, please let me know, i would be very grateful for a reply.

Many Thanks (if you reply)
Nathan

Hello and welcome to TSF
the best deal I found is this:
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage....=1218044029168
Asus G50Vt-X5, it has a Core 2 Duo, 4 GB RAM and Geforce 9800M and it's for 850$ or 520.217 Pounds
I think it's an amazing deal
if you live in the UK and can't get it from Best Buy, try to see a UK site or any shop near you who lists that laptop

Do you really need a laptop?

If you do buy a laptop get the onre RockamsterR suggested it is a good one.

A desktop would be much better for running games.

I agree, Desktops are always many times better for gaming than Laptops. If you don't NEED a laptop, go with a desktop.
