Could you post a link to the specs ?
Cheap laptops are usually not up for running games though. It should have a dedicted graphics card.
Is this what you meant? I am sorry if they're not, and for being a inconvienice (and my terrible speeling) sorry again. Thank-you for replying though.
Windows 8 Processor AMD A4-1250 APU (1.0 GHz, 1 MB cache) Storage 500 GB HDD, 5400 rpm
SPECIFICATION
RAM 4 GB DDR3 (6 GB maximum installable RAM) Graphics card AMD Radeon HD 8210
That won't run the game. It doesn't have a dedicated card and the processor is with 1.0 hz way to low.
You should focus on a fast HDD paired with a dedicated GPU as mentioned before. If you are able, shop Newegg/TigerDirect/Amazon if they ship to you, and search with the options, Solid State Drive, Dedicated GPU and DDR3 RAM. You will likely find a good deal with some models missing a few bells and whistles in terms of connectivity options and low resolution screens, but the hardware will push Sims 4 on Med/High for you. An SSD is likely overkill in terms of the money they cost, but they will give you great speeds for read/write, so see what you can find without that and compare your final results. And ensure you check the 8GB DDR3 models in terms of 4GB DDR3 models, chances are you can double your RAM for a few dollars more in some instances, so don't just see the first shiny system you see and say, "Ooh! This is the one!" Chances are there is an even better model just a few clicks away for the same or just a little lower/higher in price. For your needs, your best investment will be time to research; it will pay off for you.
