I just built my own computer last week and the sims 3 is running great maxed out. My only problem is that the letters and some other things aren't very smooth and look blocky. I have all settings maxed so it's not the settings. I even got a HQ mod and that did nothing for the blocky things. I want to fix this and make my game look the best it can.

CPU: Intel Core i5-4670 3.4GHz Quad-Core

is it possible to post a screen shot of issue - also re HQ mod did test the game before adding the mod?
and for amd if you havent yet see if the following settings help
so open your catalyst control center -
1) select under preference standard view
select gaming/gaming performance/standard 3d setting - select custom settings and drag option to quality
2) now go to preference advance view
select gaming/3d app settings
under anti aliasing mode - select use application settings

You can see the letters are choppy and it's just the letters. I know my graphics can look better I just don't how to do it.
I don't know what resolution you need to put it on. You're just gonna have to find out yourself.
Also what windows are you running? 7 or 8?
I know windows 8 had a problem with blurry font after the service pack.

When i upgraded to 8.1 i had the same problem.. i kind of freaked out but then realized it was a common problem and easy to fix
Also see if ATI have a update for your drivers.. it might need an aupdate after 8.1.
I know nvidia had a driver around that time.
