    This is quite a good list: https://laptopunderbudget.com/best-laptops-under-400-dollars/

    I copied the specs of one computer and made some comments in bold under them, maybe you can try and find a favorite with this info?

    These are just basic info to get you on the right track, it's a bit more complicated than this, but it might take you somewhere at least 🙂

    Minimum: you'll have to run the game on the lowest settings

    Processor

    Intel Core i3-7100U 2.4 GHz Processor

    You generally want something with 2,4 GHz or more.
    Minimum: 2.0 GHz

     RAM

    8 GB DDR4 RAM

    8 GB is what you want

    Minimum: 4 GB

     Storage

    1TB 5400 RPM Hard Drive

    1TB=1000GB. You want at least 500 GB

     Graphics

    Intel HD 620 Graphics

    Hardest one, AMD and Nvidia generally better than Intel. Might have too google/ask about these.

     Display15.6 Inch LED-lit Touchscreen Display with 1366×768 resolution
     Operating System

    Windows 10 64-bit OS

    You need Windows (not ChromeOS), and the game only runs in64-bit (not 32)

@Gamer23291812

Just checked out the 11", aaaand no, you cannot play The Sims 4 on that haha, wouldn't even call it a computer 😉

Also, 11 inch screen is very small for a screen 🙂
A smaller laptop usually have 13", a standard one around 15" and a bigger one 17"

If you want to play games on the computer i recommend 15 or bigger, but 17 can become a bit big if it's a computer you carry with you a lot.

For computer pricing it's hard as it's probably very different. But I can try, where do you live, US? (btw 2 am here so I might go to sleep and answer tomorrow) ^^

Yeah, the 11 inch did look pretty small to me but I figured it was worth a shot. Oh well! 🙃And yes, I do live in the U.S. Also, as long as the price and requirements are right, the screen size doesn't really matter to me. 🙂 🙂🙂
