1. That laptop can run Crysis. Of course it can run the Sims 3.


2. Hi.

   To simply answer your question.

   Yes.. Of course.... It has to, with those specs... Let me say this again...

   ** it HAS to be able to run SIMS 3...**

   And probably at high settings too.

   So don't even worry about it.

   Here. I'll say any game that is released.. within the next year.. Hell, maybe two years... This laptop can run it.

   Hope That Helps
