  • @puzzlezaddict this is exactly what I needed. I was researching different SSD’s but I couldn’t decide what was best simply for putting the sims and a few adobe programs on. Thank you
  • Sims 3 is a highly temperamental game and will somehow manage to lag on even the best computers. Posting your country, budget and preference for a laptop or desktop could help others look for suggestions.
  • Thank you so much for your suggestions! A couple of them are on display at two of my local Best Buy’s so I’m going to try to go in today to get a look at them. I feel like you get a better idea of whether you’d truly like something if you see it in person. Again thanks so much, I definitely won’t be getting an Alienware…
  • All of those seem amazing. I like the 17 in Asus you mentioned and the 17 inch MSI as well. And wow that last one is definitely a beast. SLI means it has two graphics card right? I don’t think I need that much power, especially since I do have a desktop as well @puzzlezaddict
  • Sorry for the late reply, it’s 1 am where I am, and I just got home from work. I’d prefer gtx 1070 at least and I’m not too particular about the processor, but i do know that I don’t want an i9 - I’ve heard they have terrible cooling in laptops. I don’t mind installing RAM or an SSD, just as long as it has a good storage…
  • I’m in the US and my budget is sub $3000 including any additional SSD I might want to buy to upgrade whatever storage the laptop comes with. My current go-to is the Acer mainly because I get a student discount in addition to my work discount and the Helios 500 seems really good for its purposes. As far as ASUS I’ve been…
  • The 17 was the one I was eyeing so that sucks to hear. I’ve also heard about their bad customer service which is why I wanted to ask here. I’m stuck between that and the predator Helios 500 from acer. Same specs but cheaper and acer has a student discount.
  • I know both the power supply and cooling are important thanks to tech deals and have a separate budget set aside for those items. My cousin is covering the cost of whatever motherboard I need as a late bday gift. The budget above is exclusively for the CPU and GPU seeing as all the other factors have been or will be taken…
  • I’ve had this problem a lot too. I have never waited long enough for it to self populate seeing as though I usually go in and just force some townies to join the career manually.
  • Yes if you are only physically moving the computer to a new location, unplugging it to do so will not mess with any of the files already on the computer so your saves and screenies will be safe.
  • Thanks! I wasn’t sure if Delphy’s extractor would extract the .sim file and the package files of the cc as well. I’ll try that tomorrow because it’s too late for me to do anything now, and I’ll give an update.
  • The house looks truly beautiful. Thank you so much for taking the time to do this. The effort you put into it is amazing and I’m so glad that you chose to do my request, I couldn’t imagine it being done any better than this ❤️❤️
  • My CC downloading and organizing process in its entirety is a bit...unorthodox to say the least so to keep it simple, I’ll just answer your questions. 1. When am I not downloading CC? Almost every night I go CC shopping and usually I get quite a bit of CC but I don’t put it in my game immediately. See I download cc on my…
  • Ofcourse! I’m probably going to need help with both just so I don’t ruin the computer haha. @phoebebebe13
  • Sorry for the late response, I got home from work later than I anticipated. But I saw that and I did indeed order the laptop yesterday. Thank you for everything @phoebebebe13 ❤️
  • @phoebebebe13 I went online this morning to order the laptop and it said that it can’t load my item because of price difference or item availability and to review my configuration Edit: Nvm it was only something about a $50 rebate which raised the price by $50 which isn’t much of a problem.
  • Okay thanks I’ll definitely pm if I have any questions. @SemaviLady That makes sense. I’m in Florida and don’t want anything to happen to it that would cause us to have to send it back because sometimes the postal service can be stressful. @phoebebebe13
  • Will definitely do. @phoebebebe13 This was so insightful @SemaviLady shipping is what I was concerned about which is why I was going to order tomorrow. When looking at shipping cost I saw a rush option to build the laptop/desktop (I think) did you use that or just regular shipping? I was thinking about doing it but didn’t…
  • That’s perfect @phoebebebe13 ! I saved the link and I’m going to order it tomorrow morning just in case the shipping takes a while. Thank you so much for this and all of your help. You are amazing ❤️
  • I was looking at custom and I wasn’t sure which places were refutable to buy from and then I had also heard that sometimes building laptops wouldn’t turn out well because you could put incompatible parts together? I don’t know if that’s true or not but the idea of that has always scared me a bit. As far as screen a 15 inch…
  • Sorry for the late reply, work has been hectic lately. The room is absolutely beautiful in my opinion. The semi darkness of the wood contrasted with the bright pops of blue look amazing joined together.
  • More color would work. I just didn’t want it to be too overwhelming.
  • Yes @romagi1 that looks amazing! I’m so excited to see the final outcome. :)
  • I’m sorry I thought I had put them all up there. The last one is the youngest and I have her into the tech-y gaming type of personality and her favorite color is red. The heirs favorite color is mint green.
  • The moms favorite color was green doctor her room if you could do neutrals with splashes of greens that’d be great. My heir is very artsy and kind of a loner so her room could kind of be her hideaway. The twins are pretty preppy and athletic. I haven’t spent much time developing their personalities. Their favorite color is…
  • She has the perfect garden LTW so maybe 10 of different types of plants. That ltw is a pain to complete. If you need to go any higher than that budget, it’s no problem. Everyone in the household has a job so they earn quite a bit daily.
  • At the moment the household I’m playing in now has a family worth of 212,167 simoloens. Is that enough?
  • 1. More of Lucky Palms modern Mediterranean style. 2. Garage and parking would be great but also some bucks racks because I have a few sims in that household that are eco friendly Andre get negative moodlets from driving. 3. Of course. That’s not a problem.
