What Tiger Barebones box would this be suitable for as I want to build a computer to run sim games e.g. World of Subways without spending a bundle?

my brother with this geforce can move all the games I have time I same I have little to buy it and tell you that I can move around without problems I recommend it 100 percent

James, if you are not running any mmorpg games, go with the bare minimum. I built mine with a 3.2 ghz dual core Pentium, 6 gig ddr RAM, 500 Gb hd, and NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GT video.

This is not as compatible for interactive games with heavy graphics. I would step up to a higher GeForce graphics card for better gaming quality.

Yeah. I use it exclusively for gaming. Works pretty good. What do I play? BF3, 4, Hawken, CoDs, Crysis 2, 3 and some UT3. For something that's 20 bucks, it aint bad. If it breaks, I'll just go buy another one. I use a Logitech EX110 for work purposes. What's my game stuff? Intel i7 3770 cpu, Asus P8z77-V LK motherboard, WD 2.5 Velociraptor HDD, XFX HD7950 gpu, G.Skill 16gb 19200 ram, Corsair RM750 psu, Corsair H100i liquid cooler.

it is indeed an old version desktop but works much more stable for basic computer use and interneting. the machines crash do not work that well with online games. Ankts cheap I you are not going to expand for big graphics

I dont see why it wouldnt wok with that board.It wont improve anything in your game except the sound.Its actually a really decent card.

You may want something a little faster. This is really a budget computer. I don't know the hardware requirements for Sims 3. Online course might be OK.

I don't know, but usually a game of this type explains the minimum system requirement for use. If anything it might work better for you than for me.

Definitely! It more than meets the minimum system requirements listed here: http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri/requirements/the-sims-3/10845/?p=r

I used to have a slimline, and this card is pretty big for the space you have on that pc, so I dont think that might work. that would be my concern. You might need to shop around more for one that is about the same quality and fit in the space without overheating and keeping up w/ the 250w and you should b ok to run simcity. Great choice of game btw :)

You're probably going to want something with a halfway decent graphics card for ant real gaming.For the other stuff should be fine for the money

the alienware laptop will run the sims games really well. If you plan on using the laptop for more than just sims then yes it is worth the money. Not sure I would spend that kind of money for just the sims.

I am considering buying one of these desktops, just can't choose between the 2.0 or 2.4GHz models....I am not a hardcore gamer, mainly graphics programs and word processing, and some blog editing, but will the computer play FIFA 2008 and Sims 2?

there are slots avail for any hard drive you wish to input these gamer towers are wide open nvidia didnt promise anything and mine is by dell.. its a basic tower..you should add that which you think you need

I am not into games, but used as a regular PC, this model is fine. Not top of the model, but as a back up or laptop to be used when you travel, it is down to earth priced and works flawlessly, even under heavy use.

It didn't come with any free games, even though similar ones do. I even called amazon about it. I used my 780 with a asus maximus gene VI MATX and SG10 case. It does however cover both PCI ports, its a huge card.

The chipset is supported by Windows 7 so I don't see any reason it wouldn't run. Lenovo's site shows drivers for Windows 7 (and 8) for the TS130. http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/default.page?

So far I've played Navy Field, Star Craft 2, Perfect World International, War Thunder on it and it does not have the best graphic card, a decent card. Upgrade if you're that crazy, Im not a full time gamer.
