Help with new laptop to play Sims 3+ Expansions

Hi all! I am looking into buying a new computer to play the Sims 3 and all of its expansion packs. Would this computer be able to run everything on good/high settings?

Thank you for any help you can provide! :smile:

  • Are you still looking for a laptop? The one you linked would be perfectly fine, although the third-party seller isn't rated particularly well. If you want other options with similar hardware though, you could better on the price:

    https://www.walmart.com/ip/HP-Pavilion-i5-GTX-1650-8GB-256GB-Gaming-Laptop/136519056
    https://www.newegg.com/onyx-black-lenovo-ideapad-3-15imh05-81y4001xus-gaming-entertainment/p/1TS-000E-0JT86?Item=1TS-000E-0JT86&quicklink=true

    Or you could do a lot better on the graphics card (plus get twice the storage) for not too much more money:

    https://www.newegg.com/bonfire-black-asus-tuf-gaming-a15-fa506iu-nb53/p/N82E16834235505?Item=N82E16834235505

    If you're still shopping but aren't interested in those options, let me know your preferred budget as well as any details that matter to you, and I'll be happy to take another look.
