Re: Laptop specifications

@Osiita_18  Currys doesn't list the graphics chip either, which is... not surprising for that site.  But I found other sites with specs for this exact configuration, and it does in fact have the faster graphics chip, meaning you could play Sims 4 on medium-high to high graphics settings.  It's a good laptop but not the only worthwhile option at this price.  For example, this one is pretty much identical except for a nicer screen:

This has the same hardware as the one you found except twice the storage:

And this one has a slighty faster processor and graphics chip:

This one isn't any better than those above or the one you found—in fact, its graphics chip is marginally slower—but it's also considerably cheaper.  So you'd be giving up a few percentage points in performance while saving £100-150.

I checked half a dozen other sites and didn't find anything better than these, or the same options for cheaper.  But if you find something else and would like a second opinion, feel free to link it.  And feel free to ask more questions in general as well.

In short, the laptop you linked is a good option but not the only one, and perhaps not the very best for you, depending on your preferences.
