Is this okay for PC gaming? (Like Sims etc.)

I really don't know. I bought the Apple Macbook for my granddaughter who started college this fall. I don't know all about those games but if I had to guess I would say probably so. I can ask my granddaughter.

Yes, it works perfect for gaming. I have this pc with 8 GB of Memory and it run games perfect...Joe

Yeah, any Sims PC game should run on this machine without skipping a beat on the highest settings.

I wouldn't recommend it - this is not really a gaming laptop. If you can get it to run, you'll have to set all the settings down.

Recent high-end games may have minimum requirements that surpass this machine, which you can check on the game's site or info. The old Starcraft would probably be fine on it though. And you can look for one with a lot of RAM in it since that can be different each time.

Most games rely mainly on processor power and seeing that this laptop has an AMD 2.7 GHz it should run most modern games at high (maybe not extreme) settings. Not to mention the turbo boost which activates automatically when needed. 4 GB of ram is the average amount needed to run most games today so it should be fine, however I personally recommend upgrading it to 8 GB when you get it. You can do this yourself or bring it to a computer shop.

I am pretty sure that I understand what you mean and the answer is yes. That is what I use it for. I am not sure how it will work with gaming, as I use it on a work computer.

Yes I believe that you should be fine. I have a previous version of that set up and it has the gtx 670. I haven't found a game it won't run.

Well I run Microsoft flight simulators on this at high settings...no lag or anything. So use that as a guide. Its also rated well for the high graphics games like cod and bf.

Yeah it should be great. I also play a lot of games and everything I've downloaded off Steam is runnable on this card. You might not be able to max settings in all games, but it was running smoothly for me on newer games like the new Metal Gear Solid and I get 120+ fps in Counter-Strike.

Should work fine, you'll be able to play most games, some you will not be able to play on high settings

You will be able to play some games like that, it depends all on the graphics demand of the game. The processor Itself is amazing. But the graphics card is integrated. I was definitely satisfied with the computer itself but I also bought an AMD Radeon HD 7770 graphics card. It's one of the cheaper high end graphics cards out there.

Absolutely. I run Bioshock. I would still suggest you get the extra 8 GB of RAM ( 2x4GB DDR3). Its easy to install and well worth it. the graphics card is able to handle the load decently.

If your PC will run Battlefield 3 or similar then it'll run this. If you turn things low you can run on an old 460GTX and 2+ ghz quad core (you need quad core). I use a GTX560Ti, i5 2500K (stock 3.3ghz) and 8gb RAM, I run on 1900x1200 max'd on most things. It's fine. check us out at wuh wuh wuh aircombatgroup dot co dot uk

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

I've used it for Skyrim and, more recently, Guild Wars 2 and have to say that for a laptop it's pretty decent. You need to run GW2 and low-medium graphics settings to get a reasonable frame rate. You can't expect a laptop to give you desktop quality graphics. If they put that kind of power in a laptop you could probably fry eggs on it.
