Default I'm afraid to buy it
I'm really excited for the sims 3, however, i have some reservations about spending the 40 dollars to purchase it. My computer is running on a 2ghz, 3 gig ram, 128 mb integrated graphics, do you guys think it would run on my lame machine?

No, u can't haz cheezburger

I run it just fine on a laptop that has 1.8ghz, 1.5 gigs of ram and crappy built in gfx... I dont think you'll have a problem.

I run my Sims 3 game on a vista (I can't think of the specs right now, I'm on a different computer) and it works fine.

Sounds like it will run it.
I have a laptop with an average card of 358MB (Intel nothing amazing like a GeForce) with 2 gig ram...runs fine with the exception of few things that could be better. But it will do until I can have better card/laptop in the future.

I have windows XP, 2 GHz and 2 gig RAM, ADM Athlon 64 X2 Dual Processor 3600+ and Radeon X1600 (I think) for graphics, and it runs smooth with as much as all settings to the max.
Don't know if the information helps, but I hope it does.

You haven't given near enough information to know whether it'll work or not. What OS are you running? Exactly what graphics card do you have?
