    The graphics card is integrated which you need to avoid, you will need a discrete graphics card.

    I'll give you think link to where it was mentioned: http://forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/724950.page

    Also here is a chart of i think all the graphics cards: http://modthesims.info/wiki.php?title=Game_Help:TS3_System_Requirements
    i7 6700k, 1tb ssd, Rx MSI 480 8gb, Evga 750G2, Corsair H100i V2, 16gb of ram

    While integrated video chips are getting more powerful they still fall short when demanding video is required. You have to check all the specs and some of these specs are not listed (for obvious reasons). The big problem is the video frame buffer size. The minimum requirement for TS3 is 128mb. Many business/student computers with integrated video chips have 0 to 64mb of dedicated video memory and this seems to cause problems with TS3. While many video chips will run the base game there are some very demanding expansion packs.
    I do not work for EA nor do I have any association with EA. I am a gamer helping other gamers.
