Building/Upgrading a PC for TS2

Another gig of RAM will help somewhat, but really, you're probably processor-bound at this point.

Akharra:
Figures!  ::)

How difficult and expensive would it be to get a new processor? Is it even possible?

I don't think the Celeron motherboards are upgradeable; you'd have to get a whole new motherboard, with support chips for the new processor.

Akharra:
Thanks! I have a 550watt power supply, a decent video card...maybe I will just try and buy a PC with all that in it and install my power supply & vid card into that.

I appreciate your help. It's a good thing I like to do research, huh? This game will turn me into a computer pro before this is over!

Again, Thanks!

I found this hardware guide to the Sims 2 to be very informative (it was written for the base game):

The Sims 2 is very CPU intensive.
