Is 4GB and 1TB of storage enough?🤔

@TrillSimma  Yes, it would definitely be frustrating to spend that much money on a laptop that could barely run Sims 4 at all, especially if you were willing to pay a bit more.  On that note, this laptop from Best Buy is definitely a significant improvement.  But you could still do better for the same price.

For example, this laptop ($530) has an AMD Radeon Vega 8 graphics card, which is still integrated but is faster than an Intel 620.  It would run all TS4 packs on medium settings, with maybe one or two on high.  Its processor is equal to the one you found, and it also has 12 GB RAM.  Its disadvantage is that although it has a large hard drive, it's quite slow.  I don't know how you plan to use this laptop; a single 256 GB drive might be enough.  It's plenty for Sims 4, your saves and other files, plus a couple of smaller apps like browsers.  It's not enough if you want to store a large collection of music, photos, etc.

The real gaming laptops start off a bit more expensive.  This one ($600) has a dedicated card that's capable of running all Sims 4 packs on ultra settings now, although only barely.

This one ($610) has a slightly faster graphics card and a slightly weaker processor.

Both only have a 256 GB hard drive, although the Acer does have an empty slot for a second drive should you decide you need one later.  If you do like the second one, it's $10 cheaper on Amazon:

The other option is to buy a used laptop.  This one offered by Amazon Warehouse is an excellent option.  It's a proper gaming laptop, with a stronger processor and faster graphics card than the others listed here.  It has a 1 TB hybrid drive, which will be much faster than a mechanical drive (still slower than an SSD) but is plenty of storage for almost anyone.  Amazon Warehouse does provide some quality assurance guarantees, so it's less of a risk than buying elsewhere.
