    @amymcdonald1989,

    You can't upgrade the graphics card/graphics chip on a MacBook. You need a new computer.

    @amymcdonald1989,

    If possible, buy a 2015 Mac or 2016. 2013 - 2012 should be fine, but it depends on the model and the graphics card it has. These are The Sims 4 system requirements for Mac OS X:

    MEMORY: 4GB RAM

    HARD DRIVE: 10 GB of Hard Drive space
