Laptop for Sims 4
I am looking to get a new laptop to play the Sims 4, primarily, on as mine is almost a decade old HP and is starting to give out on me. I am not a super knowledgeable person when it comes to the inner workings of computers but have been trying to do some research to find the right laptop. My current one barely runs Sims 4 on low-medium graphics and I have never played the game on anything higher!!
My budget is probably about $400-$600 and I am looking to be able to run the game at medium-high graphics with an assortment of packs and kits (maybe 10-15 all together) and possibly a few mods in the future if I get confident enough to try them. Based on the specs I’ve seen recommended by other players, I am looking for something with an 11th Gen Intel Core i5-1135G7 with 8gb of RAM, 512gb of storage and not sure about graphics cards.
The Asus Vivobook has been suggested but it’s kind of out of my price range:
This one is in my budget and hits the recommendations I’ve seen people make:
I am open to any suggestions and tips on what to look for when buying a new laptop for Sims 4 and gaming!!
