Question about System Requirements
« on: 2008 August 27, 20:05:50 »
THANKS THIS IS GREAT

I went by the Sims2 website's listing of requirements (I know, what was I thinking) and pre-ordered the game, as the site stated the CPU requirements were only 1.3 GHz. Then I got the game and the box says 1.8.  Would the game still run if I don't have that much?  I know it probably wouldn't run on the highest settings, and I can live with that; I just don't want to open the game and try it, only to find out it won't work at all.

Generally, system requirements for any game are just the bare minimum to make the game work. As in, it will run, but you will probably not like it if you have only the minimum specs.
If you have less than minimum, I'd say it's not even worth it- but I'd recommend waiting for someone More Awesome Than Me to give a second opinion.

My old computer ran it with 1.6GHz - quite well, actually, after I added RAM, tweaked the video memory, added a video card with decent memory of its own and did other stuff to improve performance.

Good!  I just hated the thought of not being able to play the last EP on this computer.  Will rip open packaging later tonight.
