laptop specs
can you run the sims 4 with mods and cc on a laptop with : 8gb ram size intel core i5 3rd gen ssd capacity 128gb processor speed 2.6ghz
@kelleybb1024 You could probably play, at least provided the laptop is in reasonably good shape overall. But you'd likely be limited to low settings, and high poly (high resolution) custom content might be a problem. Additionally, you'd need to manage the drive space very carefully. While 128 GB is technically enough for Windows and Sims 4, it doesn't leave a lot of room for cc, or for other apps or data.
Do you have this laptop already? If not, there may be better options. If you're interested in seeing some, just list your budget and country, as well as any other considerations that matter to you.
If you already have the laptop, you could buy the Sims 4 base game and see how it goes. If it turns out you really can't play the game the way you want to, you can request a refund from EA within 24 hours of first launching it. (It also has to be less than 14 days since you bought it.) The refund process is automatic; no need to go through customer support.

i don’t have the laptop yet, my budget is very limited i only have like 300 and it was very cheap on ebay, can you recommend any with that budget?
@kelleybb1024 Are you shopping in the U.S.? If so, you can get a significantly better laptop for $300 on Ebay. For example, this one, if it's in good condition, would run Sims 4 on ultra graphics settings, although at a lower resolution (not 4k).
This isn't as good but would also do fine:
As would any in this category:

There are too many options to list, but all of them would be better than the one you're considering. If you do find one you like, now or later, feel free to link it here for a second opinion.
i found this one do you think it can run fast with mods and cc https://www.ebay.com/itm/Dell-Latitude-Gaming-Laptop-HD-LED-Intel-Core-i5-16GB-RAM-256GB-SSD-HDMI-/333544160545?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49292
also i had a pc with close to the same specs but it had 1tb space and it ran well
