I just purchased a new laptop for gaming purposes, it was within my budget, cheap but the specs looked decent enough to run The Sims 3. The graphics look great but it's super laggy. Could it be Windows 8 but if that's the case, I've even tried running it in compatibility mode -Windows 7 and the same issues. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Here are the specs as follows
Acer Aspire V3-551G-8454 AMD Quad-Core AB-4500M with Turbo Core up to 2.80 Ghz AMD Radeon HD 7640G+7670M 1GB Dedicated VRam 4GB DDR3 memory 500 GB HDD
