Laptop for sims

Hi,

Does anyone know a good cheap laptop that can run the sims 2, 3 and 4 well with packs?

Thank you!

  • lucyhw​  Sorry for the late reply.  If you're still looking for a laptop, please list your budget and country, as well as any other details that matter to you, for example screen size.

    Hi. Up to £400 and I’m in the UK.  I want it to last me awhile with multiple packs for the sims 2.3 and 4. Thank you 

  • lucyhw​  What do you think of this one?

    It can probably handle all current Sims 4 packs together on high graphics settings, maybe with one or two turned down to medium.  It should run Sims 2 on ultra settings.  As for Sims 3, I'm not completely sure whether it would run Pets and Seasons without crashing, but I would guess yes, maybe with settings turned down a bit.  All other packs should be fine.

    If you don't like this laptop for some reason, let me know why, and I'll look for other options.  But this was the best I saw when I searched about three days ago, and there aren't a lot of laptops in this price range with 16 GB RAM, which will help with Sims 4 a lot (though less with the other two games).  So if you do like it, I don't know that it's worth holding out for something better.
