Those specs are fine. No need to upgrade the GTX 1060.

Is this a good computer?

This one doesn't have a dedicated graphics card, which is an immediate no for PC gaming. Especially now that Sims 4 has Seasons. You'll want something with at least a GTX 1050 Ti or a Radeon.

Given the same amount of computing power, laptops tend to be more expensive than desktops, but they offer portability. If you don't need portability, I recommend just getting a desktop since they're cheaper.

For gaming laptops, I've had my Asus ROG for over a year and it works wonderfully for games, especially with an SSD. For your budget, this one is a little bit over, but it should do the job fine: https://www.amazon.com/i7-8750H-Processor-GeForce-Gigabit-Windows/dp/B07DY11M1F/ref=sr_1_3?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1546502712&sr=1-3&keywords=asus+rog&refinements=p_36%3A-80000

It only has 256 GB of space, but it's an SSD so it should run games fast. I'm not sure if you can expand this, so if you don't need much space, this should be okay.

For desktops, this one looks like a good value: https://www.amazon.com/CYBERPOWERPC-Xtreme-GXiVR8060A5-i5-8400-GeForce/dp/B0757DVF4Z/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1546503888&sr=1-1&keywords=gaming%2Bdesktop&refinements=p_n_condition-type%3A6461716011%2Cp_36%3A-100000%2Cp_n_feature_four_browse-bin%3A2289792011%7C2289793011&th=1

It has a small SSD so it boots fast plus a 1 TB hard drive, which is where you can install your games. It's also a little over budget, but it looks good. The processor is just an i5, but I think that should be enough for Sims 4.

I have a GTX 660 and it handles Seasons fine. It's a high end card but yeah the 1050 TI and Greater are really good cards. Most new pcs now are coming with the 1060 and 1070 TI Cards and also I recommend an I7 Processor to anyone buying a PC to play TS4. I also recommend atleast 8gbs of ram minium but prefer 12 or more.

Would this work?

Yeah, this should also work. :)

Thank you for checking!!! Just one more question do you think the graphic card is good I looked for what you said I just don’t knw if it’s a old one.

It has an AMD RX 580. It's a very good dedicated graphic cards. Most people only mention Nvidia, but AMD will run the game fine. This one, the RX 580, is the newest in the AMD line. AMD usually runs cheaper than Nvidia, but they are still good cards. It will run the game on Ultra, with CC fine (aside from normal game issues that have nothing to do with specs).

Omg thank you so much!! I finally found my computer to play the sims!!!! Yay

You're welcome :)

Is this good?

RX is a Radien Card right? Radien doesn't do as well as Nvidea Cards for TS4 although some people claim it works fine on their pc with the Sims 4.

My Dell is 4 years old, almost 5, and it runs the game on high everything. It's an i5, 12 gig hard drive, 1tb memory (I think I got that not mixed up)...but I think the difference here is that I have a good video card....you can't go wrong with Nvidia. Period.

So it’s mostly about how good your video card is?

No you also have to consider ram and processor power as well.

Look up at the previous post on the 2nd page I wrote my new desktop specs but thank you for the info.

Yes just saw. Everything looks good. Ultra is the highest you can play on in TS4.

Not really but it will look better on a higher end monitor to your eyes. For picture taking though it will look the same on any monitor.

You think I could use my tv for awhile before I buy my monitor?
