    The requirements are as follow (https://help.ea.com/en/help/the-sims/the-sims-4/the-sims-4-system-requirements/#pc)

    Here are the The Sims 4 system requirements (minimum)

    • CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E4300 or AMD Athlon 64 X2 4000+ (2.0 GHz Dual Core required if using integrated graphics)
    • CPU SPEED: Info
    • RAM: 2 GB
    • OS: Windows XP
    • VIDEO CARD: NVIDIA GeForce 6600 or ATI Radeon X1300 or Intel GMA X4500
    • SOUND CARD: Yes
    • FREE DISK SPACE: 10 GB

    The Sims 4 Recommended Requirements

    • CPU: Intel Core i5-750 or AMD Athlon X4
    • CPU SPEED: Info
    • RAM: 4 GB
    • OS: 64 Bit Windows 7,8, or 8.1
    • VIDEO CARD: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 or better
    • SOUND CARD: Yes
    • FREE DISK SPACE: 10 GB

    So you would fulfill the Minimum requirements but that does not mean you can play on high settings. Also, those are the requirements for just base game. As you start adding DLC, the game will need more power. The game has proven to be RAM hungry and I think the requirements are too low. Support probably just went by the specs.

    My recommendation are as follow:

    At least 8 GB of RAM, i5 or i7 or AMD equivalent and a dedicated graphics card.
