Need help with choosing laptop

Hiii! So, I have the sims 4 on my old (and very unfitting to run the sims 4 - doesn’t meet the requirements) laptop. The game runs but it has a serious lag, issues with animation and all my settings ...

    @revinsek24  The first one is the best of the three, and it's an excellent price for the hardware.  I don't think you'd do better for under 800€, at least not for a new laptop.  The 16 GB memory, although not strictly necessary, is nice to have; the graphics card should be able to run Sims 4, all current packs included, on ultra settings, with some room to spare, although future packs may be demanding enough that you'd need to dial some of the settings back to high.

    The other laptops would be fine too, but for the second, you'd need to buy a Windows 10 key and install it in order to play Sims 4.  The processor in the third is still fine for the game but not as strong as the one in the first two.  So it's an easy choice.

    By the way, you listed exactly the right info.
