Will my NVIDIA GeForce GT 520 work with TheSims4?

I have a relatively new computer with an i5 microprocessor. It has a video card called
NVIDIA GeForce GT 520. Next year, when The Sims 4 is launched, will I be able to play that newest version of The Sims with my existing video graphics adapter? Or will I be forced to have an upgrade? If so will I be able to? My computer is hp pavilion HPE Model no. h8-1237c with NVIDIA GeForce GT 520. Thanks in advance :):D

    The only thing that anyone can tell you at this moment in time is if your video card will work with Sims3 and I guess you already know the answer to that.

    EA havnt even decided themselves yet what the minimum specs will be, if you go to Sims VIP website you can hear the actual phone call made by EA to the fansites. At this time EA do not know, so how will anyone else?

    All you can do is wait and see, save some money for a potential upgrade but dont do anything until EA annouce the minimum specs for Sims 4

    This thread will be moved to the Sims 4 discussion board soon in case you lose it

    We don't know the requirements for The Sims 4, so it's hard to tell at this point.

    It may work but we will have to wait for EA to list the specs first and only they will be able to tell you what would be the best specs to run Sims 4. I believe those that did not upgrade for Sims 3 may to for Sims 4 if they use a new engine and hope they do not make no statements "It can run on my grandmother's computer". I am very confident it will run on all my systems very well w/o having to upgrade. :D

    Guess we are all just keeping our fingers crossed until they release the game specs.

    I have the same card.

    Nobody knows the system requirements for The Sims 4 yet, so there's no way of knowing if it will work or not.

    But one thing you might want to consider is that we have pretty much the worst NVIDIA card currently available.
