Upgrading Computer
So three days ago my computer fried. I went out and bought a computer from Walmart.
AMD A-6-5200 APU With Radeon HD 8400 graphics. I looked inside the desktop and since there is a slot for a graphics card I wanted to get a NVIDIA GeForce GT 630 with a 500 w power supply.
The computer cames with 6gb of ram and the graphics card adds 2gb. My question is if I upgrade my computer with the graphics card and power supply will it be able to play the sims 3 with that processor?
Sorry I'm new at this and really wasn't expecting my computer to take a crap.
Thanks in advance.
So my specs before I change anything (how it was bought):
Processor AMD A6-5200 APU with Radeon(TM) HD Graphics
Manufacturer AMD
Speed 2.0 GHz
Video Card AMD Radeon HD 8400
Manufacturer ATI
Chipset AMD Radeon HD 8400

Operating System Microsoft Windows 8 (build 9200), 64-bit
Service Pack 0

And what the specs would be after:
Processor AMD A6-5200 APU with Radeon(TM) HD Graphics

Speed 2.0 GHz
Video Card NVIDIA GeForce GT 630
Memory 6 GB
Operating System Microsoft Windows 8 (build 9200), 64-bit
