Upgrading RAM
Magicmoon:
I think everyone, including those running without any CC have the freezes when Sims change their skin tone due to frostbite or whatever.
In my case, I had a pretty big freeze for each skin tone the first time it happened. It was more like a long pause when that same skin tone froze again later.
You really have decent stats on your computer. Nothing really sticks out as a problem. Along with what katenigma said, an overfull hard drive can also cause slowdowns because it needs a pretty good size area to keep writing to for the game's cache. But with a 160 GB hard drive, that shouldn't be a problem unless you put a bunch of stuff on it. Also be sure that your hard drive doesn't need defragging.

I think my harddrive is getting close to 1/2 full. This surprised me, because until this computer, I was surviving on a 30GB hard drive. I'm guessing it's the images, since I've got all my photographs on it, as well as music and three gazillion screencaps from Sims2. (I end up with upwards of 1000 images for each episode of my legacy.. I'm a little obsessive with the picture taking).
I also try and remember to do maintenance on a mostly monthly basis. I know I did a disk cleanup and a defrag a few weeks ago, so that stuff isn't too much of a worry.
I've been pretty happy with the machine, but when I'd always wished I'd gotten a little more ram when I got it.
