@Simsfan8989 Yes, an Alienware Aurora R9 would run all Sims 4 content, plus any custom content you could find, on ultra settings. Looking at the various configurations though, the computer is overkill, possibly massive overkill, for Sims 4. Do you have other games you want to play on this system, now or in the future? If not, then the extra power is probably a waste of money.
If you'd like to see other options, just list your budget and country, as well as other considerations that matter to you. Please also let me know what resolution your monitor has, or what resolution you'd like if you're planning to buy a new monitor. If you don't know, that's fine; it's just that higher resolutions require a bit more graphics card power than lower ones.

Thank you for replying and the feedback. 🙂
If you have time (sorry to be cheeky) could you please look at which Alienware Aurora R9 would be best to get. When I looked on the website they say all different prices. All I will play is the Sims 4 and all adds on and future add ons.
My budget is around £1,000. I work hard and thought I would treat myself. 🙂
screen mouse and keyboard would all them come with the pc?
All I care about is playing it and not worrying about it being laggy or slow after all the packs.
again thanks again means alot for any of the help 🙂 @puzzlezaddict
im a good builer in the sims but when it comes to pc tech stuff im useless haha x

@Simsfan8989 So, looking at the configuration you listed, which is also the entry-level configuration on the Dell site, that computer would be fine for Sims 4, but somewhat overpriced. Are you sure you want an Alienware specifically? You could probably get a significantly better desktop for £900, or get the same for a cheaper price. I'd be happy to look at other options, if you want.
This computer comes with a mouse and keyboard, as almost any new computer would. Monitors are sold separately. The Alienware monitors are wildly overpriced and definitely not worth the price.

@puzzlezaddict thanks for taking the time to have a look 🙂
would you suggest that the specs that are on the £899 priced machine would be ok then?
I have had Alienware before and trust it and as I am not the most clever on knowing much about computers its easier. 🙂
sorry to ask is it possible fo answer these questions -
will my old dell screen work with the new machine? - its a flat screen, does the sims 4 play better on a better Monitor?
will the specs for the £899 price work with all the packs and future packs too?
thanks so much for the help means alot 🙂
