wife wants a new laptop!
All she really does is play The Sims 3 and some lite browsing. Do you all think this laptop will work for her, and at what setting could it play the sims 3.

A new lap... what? Sh...she wants what?!?!?! What in the hell is she doing out of the kitchen in the first place? Laptop my ass...
Probly be alright, just dont get an HP, they are phasing thier laptops out.
this. plus she needs to get a damn job and buy you a real pc.
Actually its pretty sad if a guy or anyone for that matter can't cook for themselves and expects a woman to do it!
That will work. The hard drive will be slow, but that's kind of what you get in that budget range. It says it comes with 4 GB of memory, but doesn't specify whether it's two 2 GB modules or one 4 GB module. If the latter, you'd have to add another 4 GB module to make it perform properly.
I don't know how high of settings it would run Sims 3 at, but the official system requirements say that even Intel GMA 3 series graphics should work, and Radeon HD 6620G is easily an order of magnitude faster than that.
I would ask if she really needs a laptop. If she's going to take it out of the house and travel with it, then have at it. But if she's going to use a desktop, then you'd be better off getting a desktop.
