This article is divided into three major sections; "Knowledge", "Sample Builds" and "Problem Solving & FAQs".
If you're looking for a quick and dirty recommended part list for The Sims 3 or 4 you may go directly to the "Sample Builds" section. If you just have a problem you want to address without looking into getting new parts, you may go directly to the "Problem Solving" section. However please be aware that the "Knowledge" section will be referenced frequently in both those sections and we highly recommend players read the Knowledge section anyway. It will help you learn more about how your computer works, how to keep it working, and how to troubleshoot on your own when it doesn't work like it should.
