@Barbella_36 If you really need to buy from Best Buy, get this one:
Its 1050 ti is better than the 1050 without the ti boost, and it's actually a bit cheaper, at least today. To get the next card up, you'd need to spend $830, and it still wouldn't be as strong as the one from newegg.
@Barbella_36 If you really only plan to have Sims 4 on this computer, and very little else, then I'd get this laptop:
https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16834235081?Item=N82E16834235081
For $700, or actually $680 once you apply the discount code listed on the product page, you'd get an excellent graphics card, a very fast hard drive (so booting up and other Windows processes would be faster), and a good processor. Plus, you'd have flexibility to add another drive, or pay someone to do it, if you ever change your mind. Even without that though, you'd get a computer that should run Sims 4 on ultra settings, even with all packs, for a while, and maybe for the entire run of the game.
The other options are good, but their graphics cards aren't quite as good, and that's the most important component for a game like Sims 4. It's not until the $800 Dell that you'd get a stronger card than the Asus above, and even then, the card would only be a little bit better.
thoughts on this one? My husband keeps telling me about this one but I think the graphics card isn’t good
@Barbella_36 You're right, the graphcis card isn't nearly as good. It's a pretty significant difference, in fact. The processor isn't as good either. The computer is fine for what it is, but Sims 4 would definitely appreciate more graphics power.
I know the Newegg is the best one for sims but they don’t have it at bestbuy and I’m looking there bc I can pay it off I treat free in 12 months ( less ). So out of Best Buy the most middle range one suitable. Sorry woth all the questions and stuff. Hope to pick up today and start gaming
