Re: SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

Desktop PC is a good idea cause they are cheaper than laptops for what you get but you need to up the specs from what you went at first.

That one is way to low.

    Saw this old post, hope i can get a little advice...

    My laptop was nowhere near strong enough to handle the Sims4 so ive opted to get a new desktop. I see the PC requirements mentioned above, however, the lingo differs between whats mentioned above and what ive chosen in this build. Please let me know if these are good enough to run my game on high maybe ultra settings 

    Thank you!!
