HP laptops / Core i3 i5 & i7 CPUs for The Sims 3 gaming
Hello,
You are welcome. Thanks for the compliments :)
AMD probably gets paired up with ATI since a few years back AMD purchased ATI. I assume they give discounts to HP, Dell, etc if they buy both the AMD CPU and the ATI video card. Same goes with Intel and Intel chipsets.
The Core i3 are good Sims 3 cpus. The Core i5 and i7 are killer gaming CPUs.
I am not sure of the exact configurations of the HP models you posted. But I did go on the HP site and configured a very good laptop that will run The Sims 3 VERY smoothly.

NOTE: If anyone plans to purchase a PC for gaming I highly discourage you from purchasing a laptop or desktop with an "integrated"/"built-in" video card. Integrated/built-in graphics card are usually the slowest and take up valuable CPU processing power that could be used to process your games more smoothly.
