New computer
Hey Guys, (can;t post on sims forum - already posted to reddit) I am looking to get a new desktop, mainly for sims and I am just swamped with what everything means and if its good enough or no...

It a toss up between the two. Both can run the game at med-high, but may have issues with ultra settings and smooth gameplay.
The PC SpecialistFusion Elite has a weaker processor that is low-end and may cause issues. Though it does have a higher-end graphics card.
-- If you want to go with an AMD, try looking for something in the AMD FX 8000 series with 8-16 GB system memory and a GTX 1050ti or better. The more video memory the better for gaming.
The Lenovo Ideacentre AIO 700 has a better processor if you get an i5 or i7, but has a slightly weaker video card even if you choose more memory.
You cannot replace the video card in all-in-one computers. You're stuck with the specs you buy.
-- If you want to go with an Intel chip, look for an i5 or i7 with 8-16 GB System Memory and and a GTX 1050ti or better. Again, the more video memory the better for gaming.
Have you seen any others that look interesting? If you have links to any that you like, please share them.
I have found one more that looks interesting and thats within my budget.

It does not have a standalone graphics board. There are not listed any Video RAM so in all likelihood it will be shared with main RAM So this can not be recommended.
@LuckyJules13 The Vega 11 performs a little better then entry level graphics. AMD has design changes increase graphic performance with out sacrefising gpu performance. As this is a new release (Ryzen + Vega graphics) from AMD reviews are not reliable. I don't like the idea of combining cpu with gpu on the same chip because of heat concerns and this requires the cpu and gpu share the same bus system which can affect performance. Many times there is no dedicated video memory because of lack of access to the gpu side of the chip. Today the best way for graphics is a dedicated (not the same as discreet) graphics chip. If this computer is a laptop you will be limited to entry level graphics.
