Your computer has a weak processor and a integrated graphics card.

Since laptops cannot be upgraded in terms of a new processor or graphics card, the only option is to buy a new computer altogether. You do need a gaming computer for the Sims.

Gaming laptops range around $1,000 ($900 depending on sales).

Gaming desktops range around $600 (off-the-shelf), $700 (building your own), and $800 (custom).
