I'm looking to buy a new desktop.would this desktop run the sims 3 smooth and without lag at high settings? And would it also run the sims 4 at high settings? http://m.bestbuy.com/m/e/product/detail....

If I get all the expansion and stuff packs,store content,cc,and mods and if I upgrade the desktop to 16 gb of ram.At what settings will the sims 3 be played at?
Hello,
The limiting factor in that computer is the graphics card - it has an integrated Intel graphics, which can only play at low-medium or medium settings. My advice for a computer that can play the games at the highest settings would be an Intel Core i5 processor, 8GB of RAM, and an NVIDIA GTX 750 Ti or AMD R9 270.
I hope this helps and keep simming,

- So the most important thing for playing the sims 3 is the graphics card,does like the ram or processor speed matter?
Hello,
Depending on the type of game, often the graphics card determines what settings you are able to play a game at. My philosophy is that generally pre-built computers with mid to high end graphics card will often have suitably powerful processor and RAM.
Because The Sims 4 is simulating and doing a number of calculations, a processor with more cores is very useful for the higher settings. I would say for this game, the processor and graphics card are of equal importance for performance.
I hope this helps and keep simming,
Cody- So would this desktop be a better choice for gaming on sims 3 and 4? http://www.bestbuy.com/site/dell-xps-desktop-intel-core-i7-16gb-memory-1tb-hard-drive/7572014.p?id=1219279725454&skuId=7572014
