It runs The Sims 3 + Expansions & Oblivion on a high setting pretty well.is it the i3 + gt335 enough for current games ? or normal daily usage? Those 2 are the games I constantly play anyway. |

So 166MHz x 9= 1494MHz ~1.5GHz There's no turbo boost on the ULV i3 neither the Normal i3. |

Hardly any noticeable lag too. and ohh ya there's no turbo-boost for i3s btw. |
