Hi Everyone! I went off and decided to do some activities this summer and I finally decided to go online and catch up. I faced an issue with my Graphics Card and now I don't have one at all in my computer. I'm wondering which graphics card you all use and how well it works with The Sims 3. I have no idea what I'm going to do and which Graphics Card I'll end up with. Thanks!

I use the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4570 graphics card. It runs the Sims 3 extremely well, the graphics are on high and the speed is great.

I have the NVIDA GeForce 8400 GS and it works perfect with Sims. It comes with Pixel Shader 2.0 and doesn't have any graphical glitches at all.

I have the same card Batti! It's good, it runs everything on medium setting by default but I can bump it up to high without any problem.
