New laptop help

Hi

I am trying to choose a new laptop for Sims 4 but have no clue what to look for.  My current laptop is just a HP Pavilion and was not bought with the intention of playing Sims 4.  So far I've been pretty lucky with playing it on medium settings but I have now started to experience lagging issues and slow loading screens.  I have all of the expansion packs and game packs, and all but four of the stuff packs.

I've seen the following laptop and was wondering if it would be suitable.  Any help would be greatly appreciated 🙂

Product features

  • Intel® Core™ i5-8300H Processor
  • RAM: 8 GB / Storage: 256 GB SSD
  • Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti
  • (3DMark) Time Spy score: 2484
  • Full HD display

It's an MSI GF72.

Many thanks.

    That should do very well. Especially if the GTX 1050 is the 4GB version. I recommend getting an external HDD for backup.

    Thank you so much, I've been staring at laptops for hours!  Having looked at the specs again it does seem that the GTX 1050 is the 4GB version 🙂

    Thanks again for your help.
