Sims 4 Using Up all my RAM
Hi, a few years ago many people helped me get my current gaming laptop which I love, to play Sims again. It was recommended to me and I was told the 8GB of RAM should suffice but now I know the stem...

OK you say that the RAM on your Laptop can be upgraded so if you want to you can just take it to a shop and ask them to do it. Be warned that it will be unlikely to have any significant effect on your game.
A PC will use as much RAM as possible. This is not limited to your game but Windows and what else you have running on it.
If you post a DxDiag. https://help.ea.com/en-us/help/pc/how-to-gather-dxdiag-information/ I may be able to see a reason for lag but the game by itself will occasionally lag a bit. That is just the way it is programmed.

Ok I will send one eventually this week but it’s Christmas Day and I likely won’t be on my PC for a couple days now.
the only thing I had open was sims to test this and when I am not playing, it’s not using much RAM at all. I provided to screenshots I had taken before Sims and after.
I had nothing open with the first screenshot except the task manager and I was also downloading the new nvidia graphics card update. But when I play sims that’s all I had updated.
I purchased this PC when it was given to me in a link on here when I was looking for a PC for Sims and I spent a fortune on it - it’s a gaming laptop. So if this isn’t the cause for my game not being able to be played then I’m extremely disappointed. I don’t have the money to buy another PC so therefore this game would be a waste of money then bc I’ll never be able to play it again if that’s the case……
