    @Kelseybrielle  Yes, Sims 4 does support RTX cards.  I'm reasonably sure I've seen people post here who've been running the game on a 2080 (and actually running the game, not asking for help getting it going).  I'm certain the RTX series in general is supported.  There's no reason why a 2080 wouldn't be fine.  Occasionally, a newer card isn't listed in TS4's database, but fixing that is as simple as adding one line of code to one file.

    Also, wow, a 2080 for playing TS4.  That seems like overkill (not that it's a bad thing), but I'm sure you already know that.

    Thank you so much! I thought it was, but I wanted to make sure, and yeah I thought it was overkill too. I’m still weighing my options. Thank you so much you have helped a lot!
