Will The Sims 3 Work On The Dell Xps 24 One?
Backup July 19th. 2009, 11:35pmI’m thinking about buying this console mainly for the sims 3. I’m not a HUGE gamer, and the computer will most likely never see a game oustide of The Sims 3, but I just want the game to run smoothly on the computer.
These are the Consoles Specifications:
PROCESSOR XPS One™ with 24-inch widescreen display and Intel® Core™ 2 Quad Q8200 processor

OPTICAL DRIVE 8X Slot load CD/DVD burner (DVD+/-RW)
SOUND CARD SoundBlaster® Audigy™ Software and Premium JBL speakers with integrated subwoofer (25W total)

ALSO! Would it be better to just purchase the iMac 24″? I like that one, but I fear that Macs are just awful for gaming ( just based on word or mouth) I also don’t know if the sims 3 is going to be available for the Mac anytime soon.

the mac and pc version for the sims3 will actually be out on the same disc, so basically they’re both out june 2-5 depending on where you live.
i don’t think macs are bad for gaming, it just depends on their specs
i would go with the dell prob, but if you decide to go with the mac get it customized with the ati 4850
you should be able to play on high settings with the dell though, the imac would prob cost a lot more
