Giiiirl I have a 2012 HP that runs every Sims game 1-4 on it just fine. There is occasional lagging/crashing, but all-in-all, I don't think you need to have a fancy gaming computer to run all of the games.
My parents work with computers, so I've had an Alienware laptop and desktop before. They're great for gaming but not necessary!
See my post above this one. You have older hardware that they don't make anymore. Try to buy a lower end computer now with new hardware and it won't run sims 3 and 4 well or it may not even run at all.
I have played this game on low end computers to higher end. What a difference. I would hate to play this game with lag and crashing do to playing on a low end computer. If your playing the sims 4 and crashing it will only get worse. It's not a complete game. The sims 4 also likes newer hardware and requires constant video driver updates.
No one needs alienware. It's an over priced dell. They make much better computers and there is now a lot more hardware to choose from since you bought your computer in 2012.. I would not suggest going out an buying another cheap computer if you have to replace your 5 year old computer. Buy a computer that meets recommended requirements to insure you won't be in tech asking us why the games run plum on a new computer. Even though your parents work with computers if they don't play the sims than they don't know what the games require. I have seen many tech people on webd like Tom's hardware give bad computer advice when it comes to buying a computer for the sims. Those people then wind up in our tech section here wondering why the game won't run properly. It's best to get tech advice from those of us who know tech and know what this game needs to run.
