@Madamelee Tell me what you think of this one:
It's overkill for Sims 4, I mean you could run all packs together on ultra graphics settings even on a 4k (3840x2160) monitor, or a QHD (2560x1440) monitor at or close to 144 fps, except of course when the game engine itself is slowing things down. (That can't be helped, it's just how Sims 4 is made.) It's a quality prebuilt system, as good as you're going to see from a standard manufacturer.
If you'd like to save some money, you could get this one:
and pay someone to add extra RAM, which would still be a lot cheaper than getting the one above. It's also more power than Sims 4 needs by a significant margin, just not as large a margin as the Asus.
These are also worth mentioning:

The graphics cards are the same as in the ones above (the faster 3060, the slower 1660 Super), and these both have 16 GB RAM and a 512 GB SSD. The advantage here is that they're more easily upgradable: you could put in anything from extra drives to more fans without any trouble at all. The Asus does have a better processor, although Sims 4 will run perfectly well on the Intel processor as well.
If you don't like these, let me know why, so I can look further. There are many good options for under $2,000, too many to list, so I just picked the overall best ones I found in a short search. But if there are other details that matter to you, please describe them.
I do want to reiterate that ordering a custom-built PC is also an excellent option. The company would build it for you and give you a warranty, plus customer service, and you'd get to pick out the components you wanted. (Or I'd pick out the components for you.) It's more expensive, but you'd still probably come in under $2,000 for the same hardware as above.
I understand you said you didn't want that, but with your budget and preferences, I would be remiss if I didn't mention it again.
turns out that having someone build me a computer could be on the table. It just I'm worry about it taking 2 weeks due to the fact, I already waited 6 months already,

@Madamelee Do you mean ordering a computer from a company that builds custom PCs, or buying the components and having a person you know in real life build the computer for you? For the first, I'd be happy to configure something for you. For the second, I can help you pick out the parts, but finding a graphics card at MSRP is difficult. If you have a way to do that though, for example if you know of a store that gets them in stock and get lucky, then the rest is simple enough too.
Let me know what you'd like to do and how I can help.
