Re: Can I play Sims 4 on a Surface Laptop 3?
I have the same question
Forum Discussion
@JasonD716 That's not all the info I'd normally want, but there's one obvious issue right away: the size of the hard drive. 128 GB is enough for Sims 4 itself, barely, in addition to Windows and the other small apps like browsers you'd probably want to install. But if you'd like to use even a moderate amount of custom content, or even save a bunch of screenshots, you might soon run out of space.
If you'd like other suggestions for laptops, let me know what details matter to you, as well as your preferred budget.
@puzzlezaddict So should I get like 256 gb or 512gb something higher
@JasonD716 256 GB would probably be fine, unless you're planning on installing other games as well or storing other large files (movies, a music collection, etc.). 512 GB gives more breathing room but shouldn't be necessary if Sims 4 is the only thing taking up a lot of space on your hard drive.
- @puzzlezaddict Thanks so much I’m just playing sims do you think the processor is enough to play on good settings
@JasonD716 The limiting factor here will be the graphics card or chip, not the processor. The graphics chip integrated into this processor should be capable of running Sims 4 on medium settings. Any more than that might be pushing things, unless you make other compromises, for example reducing the resolution or not installing all the demanding expansions.
If this laptop happened to have a dedicated graphics card as well, that would change the equation, but I'm not sure it has one. That's why I wanted to look at the specs page, by the way—it would list all the hardware, not just what's in your screenshot.
