Re: What Laptop or PC can run both the Sims 4 and OBS smoothly at the same time?

@plantsim333  There's a significant difference between the kind of computers you can get for £1,000 and £1,500.  Plus desktops can be custom-ordered to get pretty much whatever you want, typically with only a small delay over a prebuilt system.  And it might not be much more expensive than an equivalent pre-built system.  As an example, upgrading this system to a Ryzen 5 5600 and an RTX 4060 ti (the one that's available now, not pre-order) puts the cost at £935:

This one's processor is a bit faster than the R5 5600, but not in an entirely different category, and it otherwise has equivalent specs, for £100 more:

Getting closer to £1,500, there are too many options to list, especially when accounting for custom configurations.  So it would be helpful to know whether you'd prefer the best option in the £1,000 range, the best option under £1,500, or something in between.  This is the difference between reasonably-good options and better ones, not between being able to run OBS well and not.
