UK laptop recommendations for Sims 4.
Hi guys. I’m looking for a new laptop and wanted to get one that would also play Sims4. Would this one be suitable? I found this HP 15.6in i5 8GB 1TB FHD Laptop, while browsing the Argos Mobi...

Thanks for your reply. I don’t really want to go much higher than £550. The only other thing it will be used for is work which requires the internet and Microsoft office. I have an external hard drive for storing photos but favour larger storage space where possible but it’s not a necessity I don’t think.
what is the different between high and ultra settings?
The difference is better graphics. I found a video that compares low and ultra there of course wont be that big a difference between High and Ultra.

The video is old. I believe that in newer worlds you will see more of a difference.
- Thanks. This is where I’m wanting to get it from. So which few would you recommend Please.

The graphics chips in all three of these are about equal, and significantly faster than the chip in the laptop you linked earlier. The second one has the most storage, but it's also a mechanical drive, so Windows would run more slowly, and most apps would load more slowly as well. While a solid state drive isn't strictly necessary for anything, it's a quality of life upgrade that might be worth it, especially since the third one, with a 512 GB SSD, is only £50 more.
I did also see a proper gaming laptop for £580, although I know it's a bit more than you want to spend. For comparison's sake though, this one would run Sims 4 and all packs together on ultra graphics settings, although only barely. But it would be a massive step up in performance from the integrated chips in the other laptops.
If you want to see options from other stores, let me know, and I can take a look.
- @puzzlezaddict Ok then yes please. That would be great thank you.
