In my opinion the biggest hurdle for running the sim is CPU, Graphix card and Ram
Good luck

IC, after running the compatibility test, my i5 cpu and 8800GT gfx card are fine. I just have to add more DDR3 RAM seeing I'm moving to 64bit. The i5 is running overclocked as an i7 at 2.93GH right now, but can go to 3.06 if need be..... water cooling is great. My only hurdle is my P7P55D-E LX motherboard's firmware. I might need a new one but have one saved for me at the Tiger Direct store nearby.... a P8Z77-V. It's great to have connections with the IT guys. They just hide stuff. LOL
I found out that I can return the OEM 8.1 and exchange it for 7. 7 Pro 64bit OEM disc for 100.00....
